ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To explore the use of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and high resolution-comparative genomic hybridization (HR-CGH) techniques in amenorrhea study.METHODS:
After routine gynecologic examination, ultrasonography and endocrine examination, 17 cases of primary amenorrhea and 1 case of secondary amenorrhea were analysed by using chromosomal diagnoses including multiplex FISH and HR-CGH analyses.RESULTS:
Among 17 cases of primary amenorrhea, 7 revealed a 46,XX karyotype; 10 cases (58.8%) had abnormal karyotype, including 3 cases of 46,XY females, 2 cases of Turner's syndrome with 45,X and 45,X/46,XX, and other 5 cases with abnormal structure of X chromosome (including partial monosomy of X,X isochromosome and X/Y mosaic). The karyotype of the patient with secondary amenorrhea was translocation between X chromosome and euchromosome.CONCLUSION:
The using of FISH and HR-CGH can correctly diagnose the patients' karyotypes, and provide absolutely necessarily medical genetic data for clinical diagnosis and therapy.
