De novo (15;21) unbalanced translocation of paternal origin in a girl with Prader-Willi syndrome
Abstract
We describe a 3-month-old girl with Prader-Willi syndrome and a de novo unbalanced karyotype 45,XX,t(15;21)(q13;q22.3). This rearrangement, resulting in monosomy for the pericentromeric region of chromosome 15 and a virtual monosomy for the 21q distal band, had a paternal origin as demonstrated by Q and NOR staining.
