Concurrence of Ring 21 and Trisomy 21 in Children of Normal Parents

We present a case of two siblings with different chromosome 21 abnormalities that are both de novo [r(21)/i(21p13) mosaicism and rob(14;21)]. Molecular studies using polymorphic markers have shown that these two aberrations had a common maternal origin. However, the parents were cytogenetically and...

Sumario:We present a case of two siblings with different chromosome 21 abnormalities that are both de novo [r(21)/i(21p13) mosaicism and rob(14;21)]. Molecular studies using polymorphic markers have shown that these two aberrations had a common maternal origin. However, the parents were cytogenetically and phenotypically normal. This unusual association has not been reported and is considered to be a unique case that should be addressed.
