Abstract

Detailed clinical and cytological information on four trisomy 18 cases and one trisomy 18 mosaic is given. All patients were females. Within the families, no additional cases were detected. The patients, including the mosaic case (92% trisomic cells in the blood-culture), showed all the typical features of the syndrome. Some anomalies were observed which apparently are rather rare features of the syndrome (hare-lip and cleft-palate — 2 cases —; syndactyly of one hand — 1 case —; tracheoesophageal fistula — 1 case).

Cytological and dermatoglyphic findings are described.

Zusammenfassung

Die Autoren berichten über vier Trisomien 18 und ein Trisomie-18-Mosaik. Die fünf Patienten waren weiblich. In der Familienanamnese waren keine Hinweise für die Verursachung der Trisomien erkennbar. Klinisch-pathologisch zeigen die patienten alle typischen Merkmale der Trisomie; auch der Mosaikfall (92% trisome Zellen im Blut) unterscheidet sich in seinen Merkmalen nicht von dem üblichen Bild. Einige seltenere, Mißbildungen sind beobachtet worden (Spaltbildung des Oberkiefers — 2 Fälle —; Syndaktylie an einer Hand — 1 Fall —; Oesophagotracheal-Fistel —1 Fall).

Cytogenetische Daten und Hautleistenbefunde werden beschrieben.
