[Genetic analysis of two pediatric patients with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome].
Zhonghua Yi Xue Yi Chuan Xue za Zhi = Zhonghua Yixue Yichuanxue Zazhi = Chinese Journal of Medical Genetics 2017 December 11
OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic cause for two children with omphalocele.
METHODS: The patients were examined, and the medical history of their families was collected. Methylation-specific multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MS-MLPA) was performed to detect potential mutation in the patients.
RESULTS: Loss of methylation of imprinting center 2 (IC2) at the 11p15.5 region of the maternal chromosome was detected in both children.
CONCLUSION: The two patients were diagnosed with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome by MS-MLPA. The loss of methylation of IC2 probably underlies the disease in both patients.
