Abstract
Objective
Herein, we report the first case of 46,XX/47,XXY mosaicism with a partially deleted Y chromosome.
Case report
Chorionic villus sampling (CVS; G-banding) was performed due to increased nuchal translucency; the results showed a 46,XX karyotype. However, ultrasonography revealed male-type external genitalia. The stored CVS nuclear plate was reanalyzed to investigate the cause of the fetal sex discordance. The result showed a mosaic of a small supernumerary marker chromosome (sSMC) derived from Y chromosome. The infant was delivered vaginally at 39 weeks. Peripheral blood G-banding and fluorescence in situ hybridization for the infant indicated 47,XX, +mar [27]/46,XX [3] ish der(Y) (SRY+,DYZ1-). Single nucleotide polymorphism analysis of cord blood and chorionic villi revealed a deletion in chrY: 13,133,449–28,817,579. The infant was phenotypically male, with good growth and development at 24 months.
Conclusion
The fetal sex discordance led to a diagnosis of 46,XX/47,XXY mosaicism, which could guide postnatal management.
