We report on a patient with monosomy 18 mosaicism, a previously undescribed chromosome abnormality. The phenotype is reminiscent of chromosome 18 ring mosaicism. The reason that the patient survived may be attributed to low level mosaicism for the monosomy.
我们报告了一例18号染色体单体性嵌合体患者,这是一种此前未被描述的染色体异常。其表型让人联想到18号染色体环状嵌合体。该患者存活下来的原因可能是单体性的低水平嵌合现象。
