Abstract
All complete monosomy 21 appear to be lethal early in their development in humans and only survive in mosaic forms. Complete monosomy 21 is a very rare and usually debilitating genetic disorder. Partial monosomy 21 is also rare and is thought to constitute a clinical syndrome consisting of peculiar faces, hypertonia, psychomotor retardation, and slow growth. We experienced a case of monosomy 21 mosaicism. Chromosome analysis demonstrated mosaicism for cell lines in the lymphocytes examined; 45, XX, -21/46, XX. The main clinical features were craniofacial dysmorphism including high arched palate, submucosal cleft, micrognathia and arthrogryposis-like symptoms including flexion deformity of fingers. And hematological findings were revealed dyserythropoiesis, thrombocytopenia and eosinophilia. Currently, the patient has nearly compatible growth, but a mild degree of mental retardation. We report here an 8 years old female child with apparent monosomy 21 mosaicism associated with dyserythropoiesis, thrombocytopenia and eosinophilia, with a review of the associated literatures.
저자들은 특이한 얼굴, 근 긴장도 증가, 정신 지체와 혈액학적으로 일시적인 적혈구 이형성증(dyserythropoiesis)의 소견을 동반한 MDS 의증의 소견과 혈소판 감소증, 호산구 증가증을 동반하는 부분 21-monosomy 증후군 1례를 신생아기부터 8세까지 추적 관찰하고 보고한다. 이와 같은 예는 우리나라에서 보고되는 첫 증례라고 사료되어 간단한 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
