Systemic mastocytosis (SM) with associated clonal nonmast cell lineage disease is seen in up to 20% cases of SM. SM is uncommon in the pediatric population. T (8; 21) (q22; q22) is a good prognostic factor in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, the presence of SM confers poor prognosis in t (8; 21) (q22; q22) associated AML. We report the case of a child with t (8; 21) (q22; q22) associated AML with SM and her minimal residual disease status over the course of her treatment. In our case, the abnormal mast cells, showing co-expression of CD25 and CD2, persisted even after the marrow showed no evidence of residual AML.

Background: Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an autosomal dominant colorectal tumour syndrome characterised by the formation of multiple adenomatous polyps throughout the colon. It is important to understand the extracolonic phenotype that characterizes FAP. Most previous case reports of patients with both FAP and intellectual disability (ID) have described deletions in all or part of chromosome 5q, including the APC locus.

Background/aims: India's linguistic and cultural diversity necessitates a region-specific validated Visual Functioning Questionnaire. The objective of this study was to translate the Indian Vision Function Questionnaire-33 (IND-VFQ-33) into the Kannada language and test its psychometric properties, underlying factor structure, and model fit.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 330 participants, and basic psychometric properties (reliability, convergent, discriminant, construct validity, responsiveness, etc.

Purpose: Uniparental disomy (UPD) is a genetic condition which both copies of a chromosome are inherited from a single parent, potentially leading to imprinting disorders. This study aimed to assess the integration of Short Tandem Repeat (STR) analysis into Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Structural Rearrangements (PGT-SR) to assess UPD risk and its impact on selecting euploid embryos for embryo transfer in couples with chromosomal translocations involving imprinted chromosomes.

Methods: This study evaluated three couples carrying balanced chromosomal translocations: 45,XX,der(13;14)(q10;q10), 46,XX,t(10;11)(q22;q13), and 45,XY,der(14;15)(q10;q10).
