Chromosomal microarrays testing in children with developmental disabilities and congenital anomalies

Abstract: Chromosomal microarray analysis is a useful and powerful tool for diagnosis of developmental diseases, by allowing accurate diagnosis, improving the diagnosis rate, and discovering new etiologies. The higher cost is a limitation for widespread use in this setting.

“…Se destaca en este trabajo el tamaño de la muestra, que sería la más grande reportada en Sudamérica 12,17,18 y que se incluyeron pacientes provenientes de todo Chile, lo que contribuye, con mayor precisión, a conocer la prevalencia de este tipo de alteraciones genéticas en la población chilena. Por otro lado, es importante destacar que la asociación de un diagnóstico positivo por CMA con factores como el sexo del paciente, edad y el tipo de diagnóstico no habían sido descritos antes en población chilena.…”
