Abstract

Trisomy 8 mosaicism syndrome (T8MS ) is a rare chromosome disorder caused by the presence of a extra chromosome 8 in some cells of the body. T8MS is a clinically variable condition associated with a number of developmental abnormalities. We report a of T8MS with dysmorphic features and congenital anomalies. A 3.5-month-old boy was referred to the genetic department because of his atypical facial appearance. Physical examination revealed microcephaly, hypertelorism, flattened nasal root, deeply located eyes, strabismus, dysplastic ears, cleft palate, deep hand and foot lines, camptodacty and hypotonicity. He had additional anomalies such as hearing loss, peripheral cataract in the left eye, bilateral advanced vesicoureteral reflux, and corpus callosum dysgenesis. Chromosome analysis revealed trisomy 8 mosaicism (47,XY,+8[11]/46,XY[39]). Mosacism was also confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis.T8MS is clinically quite heterogeneous and frequently associated with dysmorphism, urogenital abnormalities, corpus callosum agenesis and camptodacty. Deep hand and foot lines are very characteristic for the T8MS. Our patient also had congenital anomalies related to T8MS previously reported in the literature. Correlation of genetic abnormalities with clinical phenotype is always important for the diagnosis of syndromes. In conclusion, chromosomal anomalies should be considered in the differential diagnosis in the dysmorphic patients accompanied by multiple congenital abnormalities and cytogenetic studies sholud be performed first.

Abstract

Trizomi 8 Mozaisizm Sendromu (T8MS) (Warkany Sendromu) insanlarda bazı hücrelerde ekstra bir 8. kromozom varlığıyla tanımlanan nadir bir kromozomal bozukluktur. T8MS, bir dizi gelişimsel anormallik ile ilişkili klinik olarak oldukça değişken bir sendromdur (1,5). Bu çalışmada çoklu konjenital anomalileri ve dismorfik yüz görünümü olan bir T8MS olgusu sunulmuştur. 3.5 aylık erkek çocuk atipik yüz görünümü nedeni ile genetik bölümüne refere edilmişti. Fizik muayenesinde mikrosefali, hipertelorizm, basık burun kökü, derin yerleşimli gözler, strabismus, displastik kulaklar, yarık damak, derin el ve ayak çizgileri, kamptodaktili ve hipotonisite mevcuttu. İşitme kaybı, sol gözde periferal noktasal katarakt, bilateral ileri evre vezikoüreteral reflü, korpus kallozum disgenezisi gibi ek anomalileri mevcuttu. Hastanın kromozom analizinde trizomi 8 mozaisizmi tespit edildi (47,XY,+8[11]/46,XY[39]). Floresan in situ hibridizasyon analizi ile de mozaiklik doğrulandı. T8MS klinik olarak oldukça heterojen olup dismorfizm, ürogenital anomaliler, korpus kallozum agenezisi, kamptodaktili gibi bulgular sıklıkla eşlik eder. Derin el ve ayak çizgileri T8MS için oldukça karakteristiktir. Bizim hastamızda da daha önce literatürde bildirilmiş T8MS ile ilişkili konjenital anomalilere sahipti. Genetik anormalliklerin klinik fenotip ile korelasyonu, sendromik tanının konması için her zaman önemlidir. Sonuç olarak çok sayıda konjenital anomalilerin eşlik ettiği dismorfik hastalarda her zaman için kromozomal hastalıklar olabileceği ayırıcı tanıda düşünülmelidir ve öncelikle sitogenetik incelemeler yapılmalıdır.

The publication language of Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease is English.


Manuscripts submitted to the Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease will go through a double-blind peer-review process. Each submission will be reviewed by at least two external, independent peer reviewers who are experts in the field, in order to ensure an unbiased evaluation process. The editorial board will invite an external and independent editor to manage the evaluation processes of manuscripts submitted by editors or by the editorial board members of the journal. The Editor in Chief is the final authority in the decision-making process for all submissions. Articles accepted for publication in the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics are put in the order of publication, with at least 10 original articles in each issue, taking into account the acceptance dates. If the articles sent to the reviewers for evaluation are assessed as a senior for publication by the reviewers, the section editor and the editor considering all aspects (originality, high scientific quality and citation potential), it receives publication priority in addition to the articles assigned for the next issue.


The aim of the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics is to publish high-quality original research articles that will contribute to the international literature in the field of general pediatric health and diseases and its sub-branches. It also publishes editorial opinions, letters to the editor, reviews, case reports, book reviews, comments on previously published articles, meeting and conference proceedings, announcements, and biography. In addition to the field of child health and diseases, the journal also includes articles prepared in fields such as surgery, dentistry, public health, nutrition and dietetics, social services, human genetics, basic sciences, psychology, psychiatry, educational sciences, sociology and nursing, provided that they are related to this field. can be published.
