lüll Two cases of isochromosome 18q syndrome Pal S; Siti MI; Ankathil R; Zilfalil BASingapore Med J 2007[May]; 48 (5): e146-50Patients with isochromosome 18q, a rare cytogenetic abnormality, also reported as Edwards syndrome, is the second most common autosomal trisomy. However, the phenotypic features and survival of these patients are not uniform and depend upon the portion of chromosomes getting duplicated or deleted. The survival of these children may be longer, hence a good cytogenetic diagnosis is a must. Morphological characteristics of isochromosome 18q are not yet fully delineated because of the rarity of the cases and as most cases are aborted medically or terminate spontaneously. We report two cases of isochromosome 18q, one male aged two years old and the other a male aged eight months old, and review the literature on this rare syndrome.|*Chromosomes, Human, Pair 18[MESH]|*Isochromosomes[MESH]|*Trisomy[MESH]|Abnormalities, Multiple/genetics[MESH]|Child, Preschool[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Infant[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Syndrome[MESH] |
