OBJECTIVE: We report a prenatal case of male fetus with a 2q13 deletion and an Xq27.3q28 duplication, presenting nasal bone dysplasia by ultrasound examination. And we compare the similarities of clinical features of cases consisting of similar 2q deletion and Xq duplication. CASE REPORT: A 30-year-old woman was referred for prenatal diagnosis and genetic counseling at 24 weeks of gestation. Prenatal ultrasound showed nasal bone dysplasia of the fetus. Amniocentesis revealed the karyotype of the fetus as 46, XY and the results of chromosomal microarray analysis was arr[GRCh37] 2q13(110467258-111370025)x1, arr[GRCh37]Xq27.3q28(144050780-149748782)x2. The parents both have normal karyotypes. The couple chose to continue the pregnancy and finally delivered a male infant at 39 weeks of gestation. His weight was 2850 g and length was 50 cm. Physical examination of the newborn revealed no apparent anomalies. Until the boy was one year old, there was no abnormalities in his growth and development. The long-term follow-up till adulthood for the healthy infant is necessary. CONCLUSION: The development of CMA plays a critical role in prenatal diagnosis and genetic counseling for unidentified chromosomal anomalies. More clinical information and further studies of patients with these anomalies will identify the pathogenicity of the involving genes and improve the understanding of the phenotype-genotype correlation.
