Miller-Dieker syndrome due to maternal cryptic translocation t(10;17) (q26.3;p13.3)
Abstract
We report on a 3-month-old girl with Miller-Dieker syndrome resulting from a maternal full-cryptic translocation t(10;17) (q26.3;p13.3) detectable only by using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Parental studies using FISH are crucial for genetic counselling in cases of Miller-Dieker syndrome with submicroscopic deletion at 17p13.3. In a family with a parental cryptic translocation and high recurrence risk, parental diagnosis using FISH is feasible.
