Abstract

OBJECTIVE

We present the prenatal diagnosis of a class II 1q21.1 microdeletion in monozygotic (MZ) twins with discordant phenotypes.

CASE REPORT

A monochorionic diamniotic twin pair presented with discordant ultrasound anomalies; twin A had cardiovascular abnormalities, while twin B did not. No specific complications were noted in the twins during pregnancy. A single nucleotide polymorphism array revealed an identical class II 1q21.1 microdeletion inherited from a phenotypically normal mother and identified the twins as MZ. The deleted region encompassed both the proximal 1q21.1 thrombocytopenia absent radius syndrome region and the distal 1q21.1 recurrent microdeletion region. No other rare copy number variants (CNVs) were identified, and concordance was observed in the CNVs between the twins.

CONCLUSION

Discordant cardiovascular abnormalities may occur in MZ twins carrying the same class II 1q21.1 microdeletion. Further studies involving discordant MZ twins are needed to determine the modifying factors of the phenotypic heterogeneity of the microdeletion.

摘要

目的

我们报告了一例同卵（MZ）双胞胎中存在 II 类 1q21.1 微缺失的产前诊断，其表型不一致。

病例报告

一对单绒毛膜双羊膜囊的双胞胎表现出不一致的超声异常；双胞胎 A 存在心血管异常，而双胞胎 B 没有。在妊娠期间，双胞胎没有出现任何特定的并发症。单核苷酸多态性微阵列显示，双胞胎从表型正常的母亲那里遗传了相同的 II 类 1q21.1 微缺失，并确定他们为 MZ。缺失区域包含近端 1q21.1 血小板减少性桡骨发育不全综合征区域和远端 1q21.1 复发性微缺失区域。未发现其他罕见的拷贝数变异（CNVs），并且双胞胎之间的 CNVs 存在一致性。
