Severe Silver‐Russell syndrome and translocation (17;20) (q25;q13)

Ramírez‐Dueñas ML, Medina C, Ocampo‐Campos R, Rivera H. Severe Silver‐Russell syndrome and translocation (17;20)(q25;q13). Clin Genet 1992:41: 51–53. An 8‐year‐8‐month‐old girl with Silver‐Russell syndrome (SRS) and a paternally inherited balanced t(17;20)(q25;q13) is described. This observation suggests that an SRS gene(s) maps on chromosome 17 or 20 and that the patient phenotype resulted from either unmasking of heteroz‐ygosity or genomic imprinting via paternal disomy.
