Prenatal Diagnosis of Recurrent Distal 1q21.1 Duplication in Three Fetuses With Ultrasound Anomalies.

ABSTRACT: Background: The phenotype of duplication of 1q21.1 region is variable, ranging from macrocephaly, autism spectrum disorder, congenital anomalies, to a normal phenotype. Few cases have been reported in the literature regarding prenatal diagnosis of 1q21.1 duplication syndrome. The current study presents prenatal diagnosis of 1q21.1 duplication syndrome in three fetuses with ultrasound anomalies. Case presentation: Three fetuses from three unrelated families were included in the study. The prenatal routine ultrasound examination showed nasal bone loss in Fetus 1 and Fetus 3, as well as duodenal atresia in Fetus 2. Chromosomal microarray analysis was performed to provide genetic analysis of amniotic fluid and parental blood samples. The CMA results revealed two de novo duplications of 1.34 and 2.69 Mb at distal 1q21.1 region in two fetuses with absent nasal bone, as well as a maternal inherited 1.35-Mb duplication at distal 1q21.1 in one fetus with duodenal atresia. Conclusions: The phenotype of 1q21.1 duplication syndrome in prenatal diagnosis is variable. The fetuses with nasal bone loss or duodenal atresia may be related to 1q21.1 duplication and chromosomal microarray analysis should be performed.

Project description:ObjectiveChromosomal 1q21.1 deletions and duplications are genomic disorders that are usually diagnosed postnatally. However, the genotype-phenotype correlations of 1q21.1 copy number variants (CNVs) during the prenatal period are still not clear. This study aimed to provide a systematic summary of prenatal phenotypes for such genomic disorders.MethodsIn total, 26 prenatal amniotic fluid samples diagnosed with 1q21.1 microdeletions/microduplications were obtained from pregnant women who opted for invasive prenatal testing. Karyotypic analysis and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) were performed for all cases simultaneously. The pregnancy outcomes and health conditions after birth in all cases were followed up. Meanwhile, prenatal cases with 1q21.1 microdeletions or microduplications in the literature were retrospectively collected.ResultsIn total, 11 pregnancies (11/8,252, 0.13%) with 1q21.1 microdeletions and 15 (15/8,252, 0.18%) with 1q21.1 microduplications were identified. Among these 1q21.1 CNVs, 4 cases covered the thrombocytopenia-absent radius (TAR) region, 16 cases covered the 1q21.1 recurrent microdeletion/microduplication region, and 6 cases covered all regions mentioned above. The prenatal abnormal ultrasound findings were recorded in four participants with 1q21.1 deletions and seven participants with 1q21.1 duplications. Finally, three cases with 1q21.1 deletions and five with 1q21.1 duplications terminated their pregnancies.ConclusionIn the prenatal setting, 1q21.1 microdeletions were associated with increased nuchal translucency (NT), anomalies of the urinary system, and cardiovascular abnormalities, while 1q21.1 microduplications were correlated with cardiovascular malformations, nasal bone dysplasia, and increased NT. In addition, cerebral ventriculomegaly might be correlated with 1q21.1 microduplications. Considering the variable expressivity and incomplete penetrance of 1q21.1 CNVs, long-term follow-up after birth should be carried out in these cases.

Project description:Objective: Chromosomal 1q21.1 deletions and duplications are genomic disorders which are usually diagnosed postnatally. However, the genotype-phenotype correlations of 1q21.1 copy number variants (CNVs) during prenatal period are still not clear. This study aimed to provide a systematical summary of prenatal phenotypes for such genomic disorders. Methods: Twenty-six prenatal amniotic fluid samples diagnosed with 1q21.1 microdeletions/microduplications were obtained from pregnant women who opted for invasive prenatal testing. Karyotypic analysis and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) were performed for all cases simultaneously. The pregnancy outcomes and health conditions after birth for all cases were followed up. Meanwhile, prenatal cases with 1q21.1 microdeletions or microduplications in the literature were retrospectively collected. Results: Eleven pregnancies (11/8252, 0.13%) with 1q21.1 microdeletions and fifteen (15/8252, 0.18%) with 1q21.1 microduplications were identified. Among these 1q21.1 CNVs, four cases covered thrombocytopenia-absent radius (TAR) region, sixteen cases covered 1q21.1 recurrent microdeletion/microduplication region, and six cases covered all regions mentioned above. The prenatal abnormal ultrasound findings were recorded in four participants with 1q21.1 deletions and seven participants with 1q21.1 duplications. Finally, three cases with 1q21.1 deletions and five with 1q21.1 duplications terminated their pregnancies. Conclusion: 1q21.1 microdeletions were associated with increased nuchal translucency (NT), anomalies of urinary system and cardiovascular abnormalities, and 1q21.1 microduplications were correlated with cardiovascular malformations, nasal bone dysplasia and increased NT in prenatal setting. In addition, cerebral ventriculomegaly might be correlated with 1q21.1 microduplications. Considering the variable expressivity and incomplete penetrance of 1q21.1 CNVs, long term follow up after birth should be carried out for these cases. We identified 26 fetuses carrying the 1q21.1 microdeletions and microduplications using chromosomal microarray analysis. And diverse prenatal phenotypes and the critical genes involved in the deleted/duplicated regions were described in this study.
