A. Guichet et al., ARE T(X-Y) (P22-Q11) TRANSLOCATIONS IN FEMALES FREQUENTLY ASSOCIATED WITH MADELUNG DEFORMITY, Clinical dysmorphology, 6(4), 1997, pp. 341-345
We report a female with a de novo 46,X,der(X)t(X;Y) (p22;q12) transloc
ation who presented with short stature, mild clinical features of Turn
er syndrome and a Madelung deformity. It appears that some particular
radiological and/or clinical skeletal features are common in females c
arrying X-Y translocations. Based on the corresponding papers and on c
linical findings of our patient we discuss the significance of Madelun
g deformity encountered in X-Y translocations, dyschondrosteosis and T
urner syndrome.
