ABSTRACT
Individuals with 3p deletion show a great clinical variability. Apparently, a 1.5-Mb terminal deletion, including the CRBN and CNTN4 genes, is sufficient to cause this syndrome. Partial trisomy 13q is a rare chromosomal abnormality with a variable phenotypic expression, but in most cases, patients have a phenotype resembling complete trisomy 13. The aim of the present study is to describe a 9-month-old Mexican male patient with 3p deletion/13q duplication and a novel clinical finding. He presented with facial dysmorphism and multiple congenital alterations. Echocardiogram revealed cardiac insufficiency with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and pulmonary hypertension, not previously reported. Karyotype from the patient and his father were 46,XY,add(3)(p26) and 46,XY,t(3;13), respectively. Microarray assay of the proband exhibited an approximately 2.6-Mb loss at terminal 3p26.3 and a 27.7-Mb gain of the long arm in terminal chromosome 13 at q31.1q34. A chromosomal imbalance with a partial trisomy 13q31.1q34 and monosomy 3p26.3 of paternal origin were detected. Microarray assay of both parents were normal. The proband has a cardiomyopathy not previously reported. These data enrich the spectrum of clinical manifestations in 3p deletion/3q duplication chromosomopathy.
