ABSTRACT
Premature ovarian failure due to Xp duplication and Xq deletion has been reported in four patients, the youngest of whom was 18 years old. The diagnosis has been made with new techniques for genetic analysis, such as comparative genomic hybridization and fluorescence in situ hybridization. We report the youngest case (a 12-year-old who presented with irregular menses), of premature ovarian failure due to Xp duplication and Xq deletion and the first with 46,X,der(X)t(X;X)(q22.1;p11). The diagnosis was made using C-banding and fluorescent in situ hybridization with locus-specific probes. This case highlights the need to use advanced genetic strategies to determine karyotypic and phenotypic abnormalities.
