Abstract |
It has been estimated that chromosomal aberrations account for 2.3% to 3% of normal pregnancies and of them 85% are aborted. Therefore, the survival rate of neonates with chromosomal aberrations are very low. Patients with partial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 10 are rare. We experienced a case of partial monosomy 10 in a 14-years-old girl. She showed mental and growth retardation, low-set malformed ears, hyperterolism, hypothyroidism and dilated cardiomyopathy. Chromosomal analysis on G-banding with high resolution showed a terminal deletion of the long arm of chromosome 10. Her karyotype was designated as 46, XX, del (l0) (q26). A brief review of literature is also presented. |
