Mosaic UPD(7q)mat in a patient with silver Russell syndrome.


ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Silver-Russell syndrome (SRS) is one of the imprinting disorders characterized by prenatal and postnatal growth restriction, relative macrocephaly, body asymmetry and characteristic facial features. ~?10% of SRS cases are known to be associated with maternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 7 (UPD(7)mat). Mosaic maternal segmental UPD of 7q (UPD(7q)mat) is very rare, had only been described in one case before. CASE PRESENTATION:We reported a second case of mosaic segmental UPD involving 7q. The patient presented with dysmorphic features including thin and short stature, triangular face, moderate protruding forehead, relative macrocephaly, fifth toe clinodactyly and irregular teeth, meeting the clinical diagnosed criteria of SRS. This case indicated that ~?80% of mosaic UPD(7q)mat lead to the manifestation of main phenotypes of Silver-Russell syndrome. CONCLUSIONS:Our case support the notion that there are genes control postnatal growth on long arm of chromosome 7 and indicate that ~?80% of UPD(7q)mat mosaicism level was contributed to the SRS phenotype.
