Abstract:Key Clinical Message
Recombinant chromosome 8 syndrome is caused by duplication of 8q and deletion of 8p. A fetus with anomalies was misdiagnosed with this syndrome based on an amniocyte karyotype. Postnatal chromosomal microarray and other studies identified a de novo derivative chromosome 8. For fetal anomalies, detailed genetic studies may be required.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
