Partial distal 12q trisomy. 1980

A de Muelenaere, and J P Fryns, and H Van Den Berghe

Two profoundly mentally retarded sisters with partial trisomy for the distal part of the long arm of chromosome 12 (12q24 leads to 12qter) are described. Their anomaly arose as a segregation product of a balanced t(12q-; 17q+) translocation in the mother. Both patients display a similar craniofacial dysmorphism, but lack gross internal or external malformations.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008607 Intellectual Disability Subnormal intellectual functioning which originates during the developmental period. This has multiple potential etiologies, including genetic defects and perinatal insults. Intelligence quotient (IQ) scores are commonly used to determine whether an individual has an intellectual disability. IQ scores between 70 and 79 are in the borderline range. Scores below 67 are in the disabled range.
