Trisomy 11 detected on CVS

One case of confined placental mosaicism for trisomy 11 were reported in a large study of chromosomal mosaicism detected on CVS.  Trisomy 11 cells were not confirmed in the fetus (Hahneman & Vejerslev, 1997). 

Trisomy 11 detected on amniocentesis

Hsu (1997) reported on 2 cases of trisomy 11 mosaicism detected on amniocentesis.  Both resulted in a normal outcome.

Trisomy 11 detected prenatally

 

Uniparental Disomy (UPD 11)

We report a case of paternal uniparental disomy for chromosome 11 that presented as severe intrauterine growth retardation (Webb et al, 1995)
