[Clinical and cytogenetic study in a child with de novo chromosome 9 abnormality].

This study aimed to analyze the clinical phenotype of chromosome 9p deletion or duplication and its relationship with karyotype. A patient, female, aged 6 months, visited the hospital due to motor developmental delay. Karyotype analysis identified abnormalities of chromosome 9 short arm, and high-throughput sequencing found 9p24.3-9p23 deletion and 9p23-9p13.1 duplication. Her parents had a normal karyotype. Karyotype analysis combined with high-throughput sequencing is of great significance for improving the efficiency of etiological diagnosis in children with motor developmental delay or multiple congenital deformities and mental retardation.
