    3q29 Microdeletion Syndrome Associated with Developmental Delay and Pulmonary Stenosis: A Case Report
    (2022) Kaba, Duygu; celik, Zerrin Yilmaz; 36305444
    Background. 3q29 microdeletion syndrome (OMIM 609425), first described in 2005, is a rare copy number variation (CNV), accompanied by various neurodevelopmental and psychiatric problems. Phenotypic features of the syndrome have not been fully characterized due to the new definition and rarity. Facial dysmorphology, musculoskeletal anomalies, cardiovascular abnormalities, gastrointestinal abnormalities, and dental abnormalities can be seen.Case. A 28-month-old male patient was brought to the child and adolescent psychiatry clinic with a complaint of speech delay. He had mild dysmorphic symptoms. He was also sensitive to voice and often covered his ears. Balloon valvuloplasty was performed on the postnatal 28th day due to severe pulmonary stenosis. While karyotype was found to be normal, in array-Comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH), copy loss was detected in the long arm of chromosome 3 (arr[hg19] 3q29[196,209,689-197,601,344]x1), which contains approximately 1.4 Mb harboring 30 genes. Genetic counseling was given to the family of the patient who was diagnosed with 3q29 microdeletion syndrome.Conclusions. In conclusion, we present 3q29 microdeletion syndrome with global developmental delay (GDD), dysmorphic face, hyperacusis, scoliosis, and severe pulmonary stenosis. Performing genetic analysis in patients with developmental delay and congenital heart disease (CHD) for which the cause cannot be explained will prevent these rare diseases from being missed, and the characteristics of the diseases will be better characterized with the reported cases.

    MLPA Method does not Always Confirm the Results of aCGH: A Study of KANSL1 Gene Deletion Patients
    (2022) Dincer, Selin Akad; Celik, Zerrin Yilmaz; Erol, Ilknur; Sahin, Feride Iffet; AAC-8356-2020
    Background: Microdeletion and microduplications are detected on chromosomes as a pathological subgroup of copy number variants of DNA. It has become easierto identify such chromosomal syndromes after use of array-based comparative genomic hybridization technology. One of them is the 17q21.31 microdeletion and microduplication syndrome. A 500-650 kb sized copy loss on 17q21.31 results in a phenotype which was described as Koolen-de Vries Syndrome including mental retardation, epilepsia, hypotonia and characteristic facial features. Today, we know that haplo-insufficiency of KANSL1 gene located in this region is responsible for these findings. A total of 30 patients with KANSL1 deletion detected during aCGH analyses were enrolled in the current study. All patients were analyzed by Multiplex Ligation-Dependent Probe Amplication (MLPA) method in order to confirm the results. Results: Three of the 30 patients had KANSL1 gene deletion detected by both methods and duplication was found in one patient. Conclusion: As a result of the study, we concluded that although new generation molecular methods enable us to obtain big and valuable data, each method has its own limitations and confirming the reults with another method increases test reliability. Using together of these methods are useful for the geneticists during diagnosis, clinical assessment and genetic counseling of patients.
