Mosaic trisomy 20
MONDO:0015764Mosaic trisomy 20 is a rare chromosomal anomaly syndrome with a highly variable phenotype ranging from normal (in the majority of cases) to a mild, subtle phenotype principally characterized by spinal abnormalities (i.e. stenosis, vertebral fusion, and kyphosis), hypotonia, lifelong constipation, sloped shoulders, skin pigmentation abnormalities (i.e. linear and whorled nevoid hypermelanosis) and significant learning disabilities despite normal intelligence. More severe phenotypes, with patients presenting psychomotor and speech delay, mild facial dysmorphism, cardiac (i.e. ventricular septal defect, dysplastic tricuspid mitral valve) and renal anomalies (e.g. horseshoe kidneys), have also been reported.
Also known as: Mosaic trisomy chromosome 20, Mosaic trisomy type 20

A simple blood draw could one day detect down syndrome in pregnancy
Diagnosis Recruiting nowResearchers are collecting blood samples from pregnant women at higher risk of having a baby with a chromosomal condition. The goal is to develop a noninvasive prenatal test that looks at cell-free DNA in the mother's blood to detect Down syndrome. Participants give blood between…

New prenatal blood test aims to detect genetic disorders without invasive procedures
Diagnosis Recruiting nowThis study is testing a new blood test that looks for fetal cells in the mother's blood to detect genetic conditions like Down syndrome. The test will be compared to standard diagnostic methods such as amniocentesis or newborn testing. The study involves 1,000 pregnant individual…
