产前诊断1 例嵌合型9p四体综合征的遗传学分析并文献复习

Genetic analysis of mosaic tetrasomy 9p syndrome diagnosed prenatally: A case report and literature review

  • 摘要: 背景 嵌合型9p 四体综合征是一类表型异质性较高的罕见染色体异常疾病,多数病例伴有多发畸形或发育迟缓,表型正常病例少见。目的 探讨嵌合型9p 四体综合征的产前遗传学诊断策略、表型异质性及预后相关因素,为临床遗传咨询及妊娠决策提供重要参考。方法 回顾性分析1 例35 岁(G2P1)孕妇的产前检测资料无创产前基因检测,non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT)、羊水染色体微阵列分析chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA)、羊水细胞染色体核型分析、间期羊水细胞荧光原位杂交,fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)、胎儿超声检查结果、产后脐血染色体核型分析及患儿2 岁随访资料,并结合相关文献进行讨论。结果 该孕妇35 岁,孕15 周NIPT 提示9p24.3-p13.1 区段存在约39.16 Mb片段重复;孕19 周羊水CMA提示胎儿9p24.3-p13.1 区段存在38.5Mb低比例嵌合重复;羊水细胞染色体核型分析未检出异常;孕23 周间期羊水细胞FISH(采用9pter/9qter探针)提示胎儿约有8%的细胞为含有4 份9pter和2 份9qter探针位点片段的细胞。孕33 周超声提示胎儿左侧脉络丛囊肿大小为0.6 cm×0.5 cm×0.5 cm,孕35 周复查超声未见明显结构异常。孕38+5周娩出1 名表型正常男婴,脐血染色体核型分析显示9p 四体嵌合率为46%;患儿2 岁时随访,表型及精神运动发育均正常。结论 嵌合型9p四体综合征预后具有显著异质性,即使脐血异常细胞比例较高(46%),仍可能表型正常;产前联合NIPT、CMA、FISH、染色体核型分析及超声检查进行多方法综合评估,可降低嵌合型9p 四体综合征漏诊、误诊风险,为临床遗传咨询及妊娠管理提供重要参考依据。

     

    Abstract: Background Mosaic tetrasomy 9p syndrome is a rare chromosomal disorder with high phenotypic heterogeneity. Most cases are accompanied by multiple malformations or developmental delay, while cases with normal phenotypes are rare. Objective To explore the strategies for prenatal genetic diagnosis, phenotypic heterogeneity, and factors related to prognosis in mosaic 9p tetrasomy syndrome, thereby providing important references for clinical genetic counseling and pregnancy decisionmaking. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the prenatal testing data (non-invasive prenatal testing NIPT, chromosomal microarray analysis CMA of amniotic fluid, chromosomal karyotyping of amniotic fluid cells, fluorescence in situ hybridization FISH of interphase amniotic fluid cells), fetal ultrasound findings, postnatal umbilical cord blood karyotyping data of a 35-year-old pregnant woman (G2P1), and 2-year follow-up data of the pediatric patient. Relevant reports were also reviewed and discussed. Results The pregnant woman was 35 years old. At 15 weeks of gestation, NIPT indicated a duplication of approximately 39.16 Mb in the 9p24.3 - p13.1 region. At 19 weeks, CMA of amniotic fluid revealed a low-level mosaic duplication of 38.5 Mb in the 9p24.3 - p13.1 region in the fetus. Karyotype analysis of cultured amniotic fluid cells showed no chromosomal abnormalities. At 23 weeks, interphase FISH using 9pter/9qter probes on amniotic fluid cells detected that about 8% of the cells contained four copies of the 9pter probe signal and two copies of the 9qter probe signal. At 33 weeks of gestation, ultrasound showed a left choroid plexus cyst measuring 0.6 cm × 0.5 cm × 0.5 cm. A follow-up ultrasound at 35 weeks revealed no significant structural abnormalities. The patient delivered a phenotypically normal male infant at 38+5 weeks of gestation. Cord blood karyotype analysis showed mosaic 9p tetrasomy with a mosaicism rate of 46%. At a 2-year follow-up, the child remained phenotypically normal, with normal psychomotor development. Conclusion The prognosis of mosaic tetrasomy 9 syndrome is significantly heterogeneous. Even with a high proportion of abnormal cells in umbilical cord blood (46%), normal phenotypes can still be observed. Comprehensive prenatal evaluation combining NIPT, CMA, FISH, chromosomal karyotyping, and ultrasound examination can reduce the risk of missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis of mosaic tetrasomy 9p syndrome and provide important evidence for clinical genetic counseling and pregnancy management.
