PG - 375-83 AB - Results of repeated peripheral blood chromosome studies were normal in a boy with intrauterine growth retardation, short stature, moderate mental retardation, and multiple minor anomalies. At age 9 years it was recognized that the swirls of pigmentation/depigmentation on his trunk, linear streaks on his limbs, and body asymmetry were suggestive of chromosomal mosaicism. Four skin biopsies were obtained under anesthesia during a dental procedure. All showed mosaicism for a normal cell line, a line with an extra chromosome 7, and a cell line with an extra small ring. In one biopsy, there was a fourth cell line with an extra chromosome 7 and the ring. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with a chromosome 7 paint confirmed trisomy 7 and the chromosome 7 derivation of the ring. This young man's intra-uterine and postnatal growth retardation is an aneuploidy effect, whereas his asymmetry reflects a mosaicism effect that should have aroused suspicion of tissue-limited mosaicism before the development of obvious Blaschkolinear skin pigmentary dysplasia.
