Mosaic and non-mosaic trisomy 15q2. 1985

E Orye, and G Laureys, and H Verhaaren

Two unrelated patients are presented. In the first mosaicism with normal cells and cells trisomic for the distal long arm (q2) of chromosome 15 was found. The 15q2 trisomy was due to a chromosome 14, to the long arm of which an extra 15q2 region was attached (14pter----14q32::15q22----15qter). In the second trisomy 15q2 was present as a consequence of a balanced t(7;15)(p22;q15) translocation in the mother.
