| description | Objective: We present low-level mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis in a pregnancy associated with cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues, perinatal progressive decrease of the trisomy 21 cell line and a favorable fetal outcome. Case report: A 36-year-old, gravida 2, para 1, woman underwent amniocentesis at 18 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age, and the result was 47,XY,+21 [8]/46,XY [26]. Prenatal ultrasound findings were unremarkable. She was referred for genetic counseling, and repeat amniocentesis performed at 23 weeks of gestation revealed the result of 47,XY,+21 [3]/46,XY [21]. The parental karyotypes were normal. At repeat amniocentesis, quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) analysis using the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes and parental bloods excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 21, array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr 21q11.2q22.3 × 2.4, consistent with 40% mosaicism for trisomy 21, and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed 67% (67/100 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 21. The woman was advised to continue the pregnancy, and a 1370-g male baby was delivered prematurely at 29 weeks of gestation without phenotypic abnormalities. The karyotypes of umbilical cord and placenta were 47,XY,+21 [13]/46,XY [27] and 47,XY,+21 [40], respectively. QF-PCR determined maternal origin of the extra chromosome 21 of trisomy 21 in the placenta. When follow-up at age 8½ months, the neonate was normal in appearance and development. The peripheral blood had a karyotype of 47,XY,+21 [1]/46,XY [39], and FISH analysis on buccal mucosal cells showed 9.7% (11/113 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 21, compared with 2% (2/100 cells) in the normal control. Conclusion: Low-level mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis can be associated with cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues, perinatal progressive decrease of the trisomy 21 cell line and a favorable fetal outcome. |
