Chromosomal Analysis by Karyotyping
Prince Muhammad Bin Abdulaziz Rd As Sulimaniyah, Riyadh - 145KM
Chromosomal analysis is a laboratory test that looks at the number and structure of a person’s chromosomes.
THIS TEST IS USEFUL FOR
Diagnosis of congenital chromosome abnormalities, including aneuploidy, structural abnormalities, and balanced rearrangements
CLINICAL INFORMATION
Chromosome analysis is appropriate for individuals with clinical features including infertility, multiple miscarriages, delayed puberty, ambiguous genitalia, amenorrhea, or individuals with clinical features suggestive of an aneuploidy syndrome, including Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, Klinefelter syndrome, Trisomy 13 syndrome, and Trisomy 18 syndrome.
INTERPRETATION
When interpreting results, the following factors need to be considered:
-Some chromosome abnormalities are balanced (no apparent gain or loss of genetic material) and may not be associated with birth defects. However, balanced abnormalities often cause infertility and, when inherited in an unbalanced fashion, may result in birth defects in the offspring.
-A normal karyotype (46,XX or 46,XY with no apparent chromosome abnormality) does not eliminate the possibility of birth defects such as those caused by submicroscopic cytogenetic abnormalities, molecular mutations, and environmental factors (ie, teratogen exposure).
