    Area of Science:

    • Genetics
    • Human Genetics
    • Chromosomal Abnormalities

    Background:

    • Trisomy 6p is a rare chromosomal disorder.
    • Maternal translocations can lead to unbalanced chromosomal segregation in offspring.
    • Understanding specific trisomies aids in delineating genetic syndromes.

    Observation:

    • A case of trisomy 6p21 to 6pter resulting from a maternal balanced translocation t(2;6)(p25;p21) was identified.
    • Key clinical features included psychomotor retardation, hypotrophy, blepharophimosis, nystagmus, and cardiac anomalies.
    • Potential co-occurring partial 2p monosomy was considered for additional anomalies.

    Findings:

    • Comparison with seven other trisomy 6p cases facilitated the delineation of a distinct clinical entity.
    • Direct evidence for the localization of Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) genes was established.

  • The index patient exhibited three HLA haplotypes, confirming gene dosage effects.

    • Implications:

    • This case contributes to the understanding of trisomy 6p phenotype.
    • It highlights the importance of genetic counseling for carriers of balanced translocations.
    • The findings provide insights into the genetic basis of immune system regulation through HLA gene localization.
