ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To identify the small supernumerary marker chromosomes (sSMC) and guide the genetic counseling and medical treatment in two patients with Turner syndrome.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>High resolution GTG and C banding, SRY amplification by PCR and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) on metaphase chromosomes were performed to the two patients.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The karyotypes of the two patients were 45, X [29]/46,X, +mar[31] and 45,X[71]/46,X, +mar[29] respectively. SRY test indicated SRY-positive for patient 1, whose sSMC was originated from chromosome Y. The karyotype was confirmed as 45,X[29]/46,X,idic(Y)(q10)[31]. ish idic(Y)(q10)(RP11-115H13x2) (SRY+) by FISH. While in patient 2, the sSMC was originated from chromosome X, whose karyotype was determined as 45, X[71]/46,X, r(X)(p11.23q21)[29]. ish r(X) (p11.23q21)(AL591394.11xAC092268.3).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Using cytogenetic and molecular cytogenetic analyses, we have identified the sSMCs in two patients with Turner syndrome, which was helpful to the clinical diagnosis and treatment.</p>
