Pericentric inversion of chromosome 4 can give rise to recombinant chromosomes by duplication or deletion of 4p. We report on a familial case of Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome characterized by GTG-banding karyotypes, FISH, and array CGH analysis, caused by a recombinant chromosome 4 with terminal 4p16.3 deletion and terminal 4q35.2 duplication. This is an aneusomy due to a recombination which occurred during the meiosis of heterozygote carrier of cryptic pericentric inversion. We also describe the adulthood and prenatal phenotypes associated with the recombinant chromosome 4.

Terminal deletions in the long arm of chromosome 4 are an uncommon event, with a worldwide incidence of approximately 0.001%. The majority of these deletions occur de novo. Terminal deletion cases are usually accompanied by clinical findings that include facial and cardiac anomalies, as well as intellectual disability. In this study, we describe the case of a 2-year-old girl, the fourth child born to consanguineous parents. While her karyotype was normal, a homozygous deletion was identified in the chromosome 4q35.2 region by subtelomeric FISH. A heterozygous deletion of the chromosome 4q35.2 region was observed in both parents. According to the literature, this is the first report of a case that has inherited a homozygous deletion of chromosome 4qter from carrier parents. Subsequent array-CGH analyses were performed on both the case and her parents. Whole-exome sequencing was also carried out to determine potential variants. We detected a NM_001111125.3:c.2329G&#x3e;T (p.Glu777Ter) nonsense variant of the <i>IQSEC2</i> gene in the girl, a variant that is related to X-linked intellectual disability.
