A five-year-old boy with psychomotor retardation, microcephaly, bilateral cataracts, hearing impairment and hypospadia with microphallus was found to have multiple cell lines from peripheral blood: 46,XY/46,XY, -13,+r(13)/46, Xy, -13, +dic r(13) in the ratio of 35%/61%/4% by trypsin-Giemsa, and C-bandings. Using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with biotin-labeled alpha-satellite probe (D21Z1/D13Z1) and fluorescence staining (FITC), we confirmed that the ring originated from chromosome 13. To elucidate changes in the chromosome ends in the ring originated from chromosome 13. To elucidate changes in the chromosome ends in the ring formation, we used human telomere-specific probes for FISH study; it showed an absence of telomeres on the ring chromosome, although Ag-NOR staining was positive. These findings yielded different breaking points on the ends of both the short and long arms of chromosome 13 from those reported in the literature.
