pubmed-article:12239727 | pubmed:abstractText | Many types of chromosome mosaicism have been identified in cases of hypomelanosis of Ito, often in association with chromosome instability; however, there have been very few cases with diploid-tetraploid mosaicism described in the literature. We present a patient with a tetraploid mosaicism: a 17-year-old girl who has hypomelanosis of Ito in association with diploid/tetraploid/t(1;6) mosaicism. She had multiple congenital anomalies of omphalocele, exstrophy of bladder, duodenal web, and imperforate anus. These features have not been described previously in diploid-tetraploid mosaicism. | lld:pubmed |
