Prenatal detection and characterization of a psu idic(8)(p23.3) which likely derived from nonallelic homologous recombination between two MYOM2-repeats

Mosaicism with an isodicentric 8 with a breakpoint at p23.3 [idic(8)(p23.3)] is very rare. We report the first prenatal case on a male fetus, in which obstetric ultrasound revealed multiple congenital anomalies at 28 weeks of gestation. Cytogenetic analysis of amniocytes showed mos 45,XY,-8,psu idic...
