Supernumerary der(1) marker chromosome derived from a ring chromosome 1 which has retained the original centromere and euchromatin from 1q21.1 ? q21.3 with substantial loss of 1q12 heterochromatin in a female with dysmorphic features and psychomotoric developmental delay

A neocentromere is a functional centromere that has arisen within a region not known to have a centromere. We present a case with a very rarely reported class II neocentromere formation in an aberrant chromosome 7. A 22-month-old male was referred because of dysmorphic features. Banding cytogenetics was performed, and a ring 7 and a supernumerary marker chromosome along with a normal chromosome 7 were found. In situ hybridization using a centromeric probe revealed 46 signals, of which 2 signals for chromosome 7 were observed, one on the normal and one on the ring chromosome. Further analysis using FISH revealed that the linear acentric fragment was part of the 7q region, which suggests that there could be a possible McClintock mechanism.

1q44 microdeletion syndrome (1q44 monosomy) is a newly described genetic syndrome characterized by the haploinsufficiency of a 6 Mb locus on the long arm of chromosome 1. The main features are global developmental delay, seizures, hypotonia and craniofacial dysmorphism. With a prevalence below one in a million cases, this syndrome is very rare and, hence, often passes undiagnosed. We present the case of a one year old girl admitted to our hospital with global developmental delay and several congenital abnormalities suggesting a plurimalformative syndrome. Microarray analysis detected a 967 kb deletion in the 1q44 region as well as a a 530 kb microduplication in the 14q31.1q31.2 region, the latter having unknown clinical significance as it contains no currently known OMIM genes. The patient’s phenotype was in accordance to 1q44 microdeletion syndrome. Furthermore, after studying the 1q44 microdeletion syndrome cases reported so far in the literature, we have noticed that our patient presented previously undescribed features of this syndrome, namely prenatal hydronephrosis, bifid hallux and grey matter heterotopy. Based on the cerebral, renal and skeletal involvement in 1q44 microdeletion syndrome, we suspect these might be additional, previously unreported features of 1q44 microdeletion syndrome.
