  Congenital vascular rings is an unusual congenital condition and severely affects the survival and life quality of the patients. A 23-year-old gravid woman was referred for counseling at 24 weeks of gestation because of abnormal ultrasound findings of fetal congenital vascular ring. Fetal echocardiography showed a complete vascular ring with a right aortic arch (RAA), left ductus arteriosus (LDA) and left intracardia echogenicfocus. Conventional cytogenetic analysis revealed an apparent balanced reciprocal translocation between the distal segment of the long arm of a chromosome 5 and the long arm of chromosome 2: 46, XY, t (2;5) (q3.5; q31.1). This abnormal karyotype was detected in gravid woman. However, the microarray analysis on amniocytes using HumanCytoSNP-12 array detected 2.57-Mb deletion at 22q11.21. Metaphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on cultured amni.. Read More»
