Routine diagnosis of DiGeorge syndrome by fluorescent in situ hybridization
Abstract
In a series of ten patients affected by DiGeorge syndrome, we screened, by high resolution banding and fluorescent in situ hybridization of a cosmid probe, for microdeletions associated with this syndrome. In the ten patients, a microdeletion was demonstrated by in situ hybridization, but suspected only in two patients by high resolution banding.
