The cytogenetic evaluation of a female infant with congenital anomalies led to the identification of the second reported case of a ring-11 chromosome. Unlike the previously described case, in which the patient had only minimal clinical findings and no demonstrable loss of material from the ring, our patient had numerous anomalies that were associated with a substantial deficiency of 11q material. The different phenotypes in these two cases represent variation in the amount and location of the chromosomal material lost during the genesis of the ring. The manifestations of this patient and the deletion of region q24 leads to qter from the ring-11 identify a specific chromosome deletion syndrome referred to as del (11q) syndrome.

We present the case of a 56-year-old male with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) whose bone marrow immunophenotype showed lower positivity for CD45 and positivity for CD34; 8.66% of this population also expressed partial positives for MPO, CD16, CD117, CD36, CD33, and CD71, as well as positives for CD13, HLA-DR, and CD11b. No alterations in the pattern of maturation were seen in CD13 vs CD16 and CD13 vs CD11b.

Ring chromosomes are uncommon findings in prenatal diagnosis. Growth retardation is the most significant manifestation, in particular among patients with rings of larger chromosomes. A 30-year-old gravida 1, para 0 white woman was referred for genetic counseling because of maternal anxiety.

The ocular and systemic abnormalities in a boy with ring chromosome 11 [46, XY/46, XY, r(11) (p 15.5----q25] are described. The ocular anomalies consisted of bilateral hypermetropia, microcornea, anterior chamber cleavage syndrome with prominent Wölfflin nodes, and cartwheel configuration of the anterior iris leaf.

Cytogenetic examination, utilizing B- and T-cell mitogens, of the peripheral blood lymphocytes of a patient with the prolymphocytic variant of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and a history of radiation exposure revealed two abnormal clones. One clone with 48 chromosomes (+t(6;12),6q-, +12,14q+) may be derived from CLL cells, whereas the clone with 46 chromosomes and a ring #11 possibly originated from normal T and/or B cells affected by past irradiation.
