摘要:

报道1例二次胎儿脑积水妊娠史的家系,采用单核苷酸多态性微阵列(single nucleotide polymorphism array,SNP array)分析及全外显子组测序(whole-exome sequencing,WES)分析其遗传学病因。SNP array未见胎儿染色体致病性及可能致病性拷贝数变异。WES结果示胎儿POMT2基因的2号外显子存在一个遗传自父亲的可能致病性变异c.287A>G,POMT2基因的13号外显子存在一个遗传自母亲的致病性变异c.1362G>A。基因检测结果提示胎儿为POMT2基因复合杂合变异所致的Walker-Warburg综合征(Walker-Warburg syndrome,WWS)。对于反复胎儿脑积水且染色体未见致病性及可能致病性拷贝数变异的患者,可行家系WES检查以期找到遗传学病因,为再生育的遗传咨询及生育方式的选择提供依据。

Abstract:

A family with a case of two times of fetal hydrocephalus pregnancies was reported. The genetic etiology was analyzed by single nucleotide polymorphism array (SNP array) and whole-exome sequencing (WES). No pathogenic and likely pathogenic copy number variants were found from SNP array. The fetal was found to harbor a likely pathogenic c.287A>G mutation in exon 2 of POMT2 gene from the father and a pathogenic c.1362G>A mutation in exon 13 of POMT2 gene from the mother. The fetal carried the compound heterozygous mutations of POMT2 gene and so was diagnosed with Walker-Warburg syndrome (WWS). For a family with recurrent fetal hydrocephalus while excluding pathogenic and likely pathogenic copy number variants of fetal chromosome, WES is available with a view to identify the genetic etiology and to provid genetic data for reproduction.
