We report on a 3-year-old girl with a typical 9p trisomy syndrome, whose 45-chromosome karyotype includes a 9p+. As assessed by G, C and Ag-NOR bands, the rearranged chromosome resulted from a 9p13p24 direct duplication coupled with a translocation of the whole 22q onto 9pter, had heterochromatin at the junction site, lacked both nucleolar organizing regions (NORs) and centromere dots at the unconstricted fusion point, and was present in all metaphases scored. FISH results: a 9p subtelomere probe gave a diminished signal on the 9p+ precisely at the duplication junction 9p24::9p13, but no labeling was observed at the 9;22 translocation site; a pancentromeric alphoid probe labeled all centromeres, and gave a distinct signal at the 9pter;22cen junction. Hence, her karyotype was 45,XX,rea(9;22)(9qter9p24::9p139p24::22p1022qter).ish rea(9;22) (9psubtel+dim,pancen+). Parental chromosomes were normal. The distinctiveness of the present centromere-telomere fusion rests on the coupling of an intrachromosomal distal duplication with a whole-arm translocation including alphoid DNA onto the duplicated segment. The centromeric inertia of the residual alphoid DNA in the present case compares with the variable functional status of the chromosome 22 centromere in true heterodicentrics involving such a chromosome.

We describe here a 3-month-old male infant with brachy-plagyocephaly, short neck, widely spaced nipples, mild hypertonia, and ambiguous external genitalia but with both testes in the scrotum and no Mullerian derivates. His karyotype was 45,X,der(Y;9)(q12;p24).ish der(Y;9)(DYZ3+,SRY+,9ptel?) de novo. This patient's impaired sex differentiation is consistent with gonadal dysgenesis and compares with the male-to-female sex reversal secondary to a partial 9p deletion in spite of an intact Yp or SRY locus documented in 24 patients including a sex-reversed girl with a (Y;9) dicentric derivative. As for the cytogenetic findings, this case represents the second instance of a de novo pseudodicentric (Y;9) chromosome with loss of both distal 9p and Yq12 regions, apparent intactness of SRY, and consistent or preferential inactivation of the Y centromere. In addition, the possible 9p23p-p22 duplication observed in this case evokes the concomitant 9p22-p21 duplication documented in the previous girl with a (Y;9) derivative. Hence, these striking similarities point to a nonrandom Y;9 rearrangement in patients with either sex reversal or gonadal dysgenesis. Even if the present pseudodicentric derivative had inactivated the Y centromere, the existence of some variant cells points to functional dicentricity as it has been documented in other Y;autosome dicentric derivatives.
