We describe a method for use of fluorescent-labeled whole chromosome-specific paint probes on GTL-banded metaphases to utilize the combined potential of these techniques for defining chromosome abnormalities. The efficacy of this method was tested on 6 cases involving different chromosome abnormalities and various tissues, including blood, amniotic fluid, skin fibroblasts, and bone marrow.

A newborn female presented with multiple congenital anomalies including facial dysmorphism, agenesis of the corpus callosum, type I laryngeal cleft, tracheal stenosis, bilaterally small kidneys, segmental vertebral anomalies, extranumerary rib, bilateral hip dislocation, digital anomalies, and growth retardation. Newborn aneuploidy detection (NAD) based on interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) indicated monosomy 13 in 47 of 200 (23.5%) peripheral blood cells (normal cutoff 8.

We report on a 19-month-old boy with partial trisomy 13q resulting from a probable balanced translocation involving chromosomes 1 and 13. The infant presented with omphalocele, malrotation, microcephaly with overriding skull bones, micrognathia, apparently low-set ears, rocker-bottom feet, and congenital heart disease, findings suggestive of trisomy 13. Karyotypic studies from peripheral blood lymphocytes documented an unbalanced karyotype 46,XY,-1,+der(1).
