Partial monosomy 10p is a rare chromosomal disorder characterised by frontal bossing, micrognathia, congenital heart defects, vesicoureteral abnormalities, and developmental delay. This is the first report to describe seizures not associated with hypocalcaemia, as well as cortical atrophy and decreased white matter volume on magnetic resonance imaging, in a patient with documented partial monosomy 10p. The neuroradiographic abnormalities found in this patient provide a first step towards understanding the aetiology of the developmental delay and ventriculomegaly associated with this chromosomal abnormality.
10号染色体短臂部分单体性是一种罕见的染色体疾病,其特征为前额突出、小颌畸形、先天性心脏缺陷、膀胱输尿管异常和发育迟缓。这是首例报告,描述了一名确诊为10号染色体短臂部分单体性的患者出现与低钙血症无关的癫痫发作,以及磁共振成像显示的皮质萎缩和白质体积减少。该患者发现的神经影像学异常为理解与这种染色体异常相关的发育迟缓和脑室扩大的病因迈出了第一步。
