Prader-Willi syndrome and chromosomal mosaicism 46, XY/47, XY, + mar in two cases
Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review
Two cases of the Prader-Willi syndrome with 46, XY/47, XY, + mar are reported. The majority of Prader-Willi patients with chromosome abnormalities have either 15/15 translocations or mosaicism. Both of these aberrations presumably occur after fertilization. A possible relationship between high parental age and chromosome abnormalities in the Prader-Willi syndrome is discussed.
