Pallister's Mosaicism Syndrome (www.whonamedit.com) chromosome 12. pallisterkillian mosaic syndrome is a rare chromosomaldisorder that occurs for no apparent reason. Major symptoms http://www.whonamedit.com/synd.cfm/1868.html
Extractions: Tetrasomy of the short arm of chromosome 12. Pallister-Killian Mosaic Syndrome is a rare chromosomal disorder that occurs for no apparent reason. Major symptoms may include a coarse face with a high forehead, sparse hair on the scalp, an abnormally wide space between the eyes, a fold of the skin over the inner corner of the eyes, and a broad nasal bridge with a highly arched palate. Mental retardation, loss of muscle tone, and streaks of skin lacking color are often present. The adult phenotype is marked mainly by epilepsy, macroglossia, coarse facies, and severe mental retardation.

Extractions: Síndrome de Pallister-Killian - PKS Teschler Nicola e Killian descreveram uma paciente com 3 anos de idade com esse distúrbio, em 1981. Um segundo caso foi relatado por Schroer e Stevenson, em 1983. Subsequentemente foi reconhecido que dois adultos com um fenótipo similar e mosaicismo para um cromossomo marcados descrito por Pallister et al., em 1976, apresentavam a mesma condição. Recentemente, a tetrassomia 12p, seja em mosaico ou total, foi documentada em fibroblastos da pele de indivíduos afetados, mas não no sangue periférico. ANORMALIDADES Crescimento . Estatura, peso e circunferência cefálica normais ou aumentados ao nascimento com desaceleração do crescimento pós-natal da estatura e da circunferência cefálica, Frequentemente há o desenvolvimento de obesidade. Desempenho . Deficiência mental profunda com desenvolvimento mínimo da linguagem. Convulsões. Hipotononia com desenvolvimento de contraturas com o avançar da idade. Surdez. Craniofaciais . Cabelos esparsos na região anterior, sobretudo nas regiões temporais na infância, com sombrancelhas e cílios ralos. Fronte proeminente. A face se torna mais grosseira no decorrer do tempo.

Extractions: Pallister-Killian Syndrome Obstetrical patient presented for evaluation of fetal hydramnios, short limbs and sacral appendage at 32 weeks gestation Targeted ultrasound examination confirms fetal hydramnios, short limbs and sacral appendage. In addition, Dandy-Walker Malformation and diaphragmatic defect were revealed. Amniocentesis was performed. Karyotype showed 46,XY/47,XY + i(12p) identified by G-banded metaphases and FISH analysis. Tetrasomy was observed in 18 of 20 colonies. Tetrasomy 12p is consistent with Pallister-Killian syndrome (PKS). Spontaneous vaginal delivery of male infant at 35 weeks 5 days. Infant was intubated. Diaphragmatic hernia was confirmed through X-ray, baby was extubated and expired shortly thereafter. A review of the literature indicates that all Pallister-Killian fetuses with diaphragmatic defects die shortly after birth. Hydramnios, short limbs and diaphragmatic defects are common in PKS. Sacral appendage has been reported in association with PKS. Hydrocephalus is also reported in PKS. This case appears to be the first associated with Dandy-Walker malformation. The extra chromosome is often not found in peripheral lymphocytes and may be lost in cultured cell lines. If cordocentesis had been used to obtain tissue for cytogenetics in this case, as it often is in the third trimester, the extra chromosome confirming the diagnosis of PKS may not have been found. The clinical features of PKS resemble Fryns syndrome, an autosomal recessive condition, which may have been diagnosed in the absence of an accurate karyotype. When diaphragmatic defect in association with other anomalies is detected in late gestation, an amniotic fluid sample rather than fetal blood sample would enable exclusion or confirmation of PKS. Once a correct diagnosis is made, appropriate prognosis and recurrence risk counseling can be provided to the patient.

Extractions: printer friendly PALLISTER-KILLIAN SYNDROME home more about us in your area conditions information ... how you can help search this site PKS affects both males and females equally. The condition is present at birth and the oldest known individuals with PKS are in their forties. The major symptoms of PKS include a characteristic facial appearance, learning difficulties , seizures (see separate entry, epilepsy ), loss of muscle tone ( hypotonia ) and streaks of skin in which there is no colour (hypopigmentation) or darker skin colour than normal (hyperpigmentation) anywhere on the body. Individuals may show some or all of these features and, in addition, may be differently affected in the severity of their symptoms. Typically individuals with PKS have a high forehead, sparse hair on the temple region of the scalp and eyebrows, an abnormally wide space between the eyes, a fold of skin over the inner corner of the eyes and a flat nose. At birth infants with PKS are profoundly hypotonic (floppy) and this may persist into later life. Between the ages of 5 and 10 years, children may have stiffness of joints (contractures). Children are almost always developmentally delayed with learning difficulties and minimal speech. Seizures may occur during infancy. Difficulties with vision (see separate entry, visual impairment ) and hearing (see separate entry

Extractions: Background There is no single unifying trait for these disorders. Some have their genetic defect well characterized. Others are still waiting for the discovery of the gene or genes which are damaged. The diagnosis requires careful clinical laboratory evaluation and may require testing for enzymes that are only available in research laboratories. Biopsy diagnosis may play an important role, not only in establishing the diagnosis, but providing fresh tissue for molecular and enzyme studies. Acrodermatitis Enteropathica Williams Syndrome The Human Genome Project will soon have the complete genetic sequence of 3 billion base pairs of DNA encoding for about 100,000 genes. Already, many genes for diseases have been uncovered. As of this writing, it is estimated that 1% of all newborn infants harbor some chromosomal abnormality and 5% of individuals below the age of 25 yrs may develop a serious disease with a significant genetic component. Genetic disorders are frequently the result of an abnormal gene leading to an enzyme or protein defect. There are also disorders which are termed
CMGS-Mosaicism Encountered In Prenatal Diagnosis/13.3.01 pallister killian syndrome) requires extensive analysis as clinically affectedliveborn children have been reported. Should care also be taken with mosaic http://www.ich.ucl.ac.uk/cmgs/mosaic.htm
Extractions: 13 March 2001 MRCPath part 1 course. Mosaicism is a relatively rare finding in prenatal cytogenetics, accounting for approximately 5% of all prenatal cases but this figure drops to 1:3500 livebirths. Mosaicism is defined as the presence in an individual or tissue of two or more genetically distinct cell lines derived from a single zygote. The four main types of mosaicism encountered are; Single cell mosaicism (Level 1):- one cell with an extra chromosome or a structural chromosomal abnormality in one colony or flask. This is by far the most common form of mosaicism accounting for almost the full 3% incidence. Pseudomosaicism (Level II):- Two or more cells with the same chromosomal abnormality restricted to a single flask or colony. Pseudomosaicism accounts for roughly 0.5% of all mosaics detected by cytogenetic analysis. Confined placental mosaicism (CPM):- Tissue specific mosaicism affecting the placenta only. CPM occurs in approximately 1-2% of viable pregnancies.
