PG - 511-3 LID - 10.3760/cma.j.issn.1003-9406.2009.05.006 [doi] AB - OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the conventional cytogenetic methods in genetic diagnosis and prenatal diagnosis in the family with a proband of Angelman syndrome (AS). METHODS: High-resolution G-banding karyotyping and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) on metaphase chromosomes were performed. RESULTS: Two AS patients and 1 normal fetus in the family were successfully detected by FISH. CONCLUSION: Our result demonstrated that patient with type I AS could be detected by combining the techniques of high-resolution G-banding and FISH with clinical observation, which would offer accurate genetic counseling information to the geneticists and provide the prenatal diagnosis for the AS family.
