X chromosome instability associated with familial Turner syndrome

A family with two members (two generations) exhibiting Turner syndrome is described. Cytogenetic studies on these individuals showed the presence of multiple X chromosome changes. Evidence is presented to show that the maternally inherited X chromosome is the chromosome involved in the structural alterations observed. The effect of a tendency of the maternal X chromosome to break at specific sites on the development of the Turner phenotype and abnormal karyology is discussed.

Posterior urethral valves in patients with Down syndrome

Renal and urological anomalies in Down syndrome (DS) have received little attention compared with the nephrourological findings described in other chromosomal abnormalities. Renal hypoplasia, hydroureteronephrosis, ureterovesical and ureteropelvic junction obstruction, and vesicoureteral reflux, but not posterior urethral valves, have been associated with DS. We report the occurrence of posterior urethral valves in three male infants with DS at a single institution. All had multiple urological procedures for correction or palliation of obstruction. Children with DS may have an increased risk for developing posterior urethral valves and obstructive uropathy. Furthermore, they may also develop chronic renal failure secondary to posterior urethral valves. Therefore, we suggests that infants with DS be screened with ultrasonography for renal and urological abnormalities early in life and, if abnormal, a contrast voiding cystourethrogram be performed to rule out posterior urethral valves or other bladder or urethral abnormalities. A review of the renal and urological anomalies in DS reported in the literature since 1960 is presented.     

二氯胺基酚诱发的染色体畸变及染毒时间对畸变率的影响研究

２，４－二氯胺基酚（ＤＣＡＰ）是８３—１除草剂在哺乳动物体内的主要代谢产物。本研究以三种染毒计划观察了ＤＣＡＰ诱发Ｖ７９细胞的染色体畸变。结果表明：ＤＣＡＰ是一种染色体损伤剂，诱发的畸变主要为染色单体断裂和交换；３ｈ染毒和染毒后培养１７ｈ诱发的染色体畸变率最高，２０ｈ染毒观察不到染色体畸变，说明以高浓度短期染毒对高细胞毒性化合物的细胞遗传毒性研究可能是较好的染毒方案。     

Abdominal zygomycotic thromboangiitis in a patient with AML and t(1;13;14)

 The case report of a 61 year-old man with AML M2 FAB, t(1; 13; 14) and zygomycotic mesenterial thromboangiitis is presented. Two induction cycles of chemotherapy were administered due to primary drug resistance. They were complicated by pneumonia, colonic pseudo-obstruction and perforation with peritonitis. The patient died on the 40th day of therapy, 4 days after undergoing palliative surgery. Zygomycotic thromboangiitis, which very probably contributed to the intestinal perforation, was confirmed morphologically at necropsy. The novel complex chromosomal translocation t(1; 13; 14) (q31; q32; q24) and the problems connected with the diagnosis of invasive fungal infections are discussed.

86例脐血染色体核型分析

目的 总结脐血梁色体异常的类型。方法 对86例有产前诊断指征的孕妇,在妊娠19-35w时,行脐带穿刺术抽取脐血进行染色体核型分析。结果 染色体异常核型6例,检出率为6.98％;其中21三体3例,18三体1例,染色体变异2例。结论 染色体三体,尤其是21三体为最主要的胎儿染色体异常核型,而通过产前筛查、产前诊断的方法可以有效降低先天性缺陷患儿出生。     

Incidence of major chromosomal abnormalities in a referred population for suspected chromosomal aberrations: a report of 357 cases

The present report describes the cytogenetic findings in 357 cases referred for suspected chromosomal abnormalities because of abnormal clinical features. Chromosomal anomalies were found in 97 (27.2 %) of the cases studied. A significantly high rate of chromosomal abnormalities was found in a population with clinical abnormalities in comparison to an unselected population (0.48–0.55 %).     

489例不良孕产史患者细胞遗传学分析

目的探讨染色体异常对生育的影响.方法对489例有自然流产、胎停育或生育畸形儿史的患者进行外周血淋巴细胞培养,G显带染色体核型分析.结果 489例患者中染色体核型异常24例, 异常率达4.9%, 其中有自然流产、胎停育史的患者核型异常占20例,有生育畸形儿史的患者核型异常占4例.染色体变异共21例,占4.3%.结论染色体异常是导致不良生育的重要影响因素, 应重视遗传学检查,进行优生优育指导.
