[Antenatal diagnosis of structural chromosome anomalies. 226 cases (author's transl)]. 1981

J Boué, and F Barichard, and C Deluchat, and H Der Sarkissian, and P Galano, and A Boué

A series of 226 antenatal diagnoses of chromosome structural re-arrangements in 181 couples has shown the usefulness of such diagnosis for couples including a genitor carrying a balanced anomaly. Analysis of the data has elicited major variations in the incidence of unbalanced anomalies in foetal cells and has provided information which can usefully be applied to genetic counselling.

D004314 Down Syndrome A chromosome disorder associated either with an extra CHROMOSOME 21 or an effective TRISOMY for chromosome 21. Clinical manifestations include HYPOTONIA, short stature, BRACHYCEPHALY, upslanting palpebral fissures, epicanthus, Brushfield spots on the iris, protruding tongue, small ears, short, broad hands, fifth finger clinodactyly, single transverse palmar crease, and moderate to severe INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY. Cardiac and gastrointestinal malformations, a marked increase in the incidence of LEUKEMIA, and the early onset of ALZHEIMER DISEASE are also associated with this condition. Pathologic features include the development of NEUROFIBRILLARY TANGLES in neurons and the deposition of AMYLOID BETA-PROTEIN, similar to the pathology of ALZHEIMER DISEASE.

D005817 Genetic Counseling An educational process that provides information and advice to individuals or families about a genetic condition that may affect them. The purpose is to help individuals make informed decisions about marriage, reproduction, and other health management issues based on information about the genetic disease, the available diagnostic tests, and management programs. Psychosocial support is usually offered. Counseling, Genetic,Genetic Counseling, Prenatal,Prenatal Genetic Counseling
