Q92.2 Partial trisomy, major form

A whole arm or more doubled

Q92.3 Partial trisomy, minor form

Less than a whole arm doubled

Q92.4 Chromosome duplications that are only visible in the prometa phase

The trisomy 12 is a (by the triple trisomic ) presence of genetic material of the 12th chromosome caused disability based on a genome mutation .

to form

  • Free trisomy 12 : Type in which chromosome 12 is completely triple in all body cells.
  • Translocation trisomy 12 : Type in which chromosome 12 is threefold in all body cells. However, one of the three chromosomes 12 or part of it has attached itself to a different chromosome. This "change of location" of a chromosome or a piece of chromosome is known as a translocation in genetics .
  • Mosaic trisomy 12 : Type in which chromosome 12 is not present in triplicate in all body cells, but a cell line with the usual diploid set of chromosomes can be found at the same time. The presence of several karyotypes within an organism is called a mosaic in genetics .
  • Partial trisomy 12 : Type in which a chromosome segment of one of the two chromosomes 12 is tripled. The chromosomes are indeed as usual twice before in all body cells, but one is part ( Part ) of the two chromosomes 12 verzweifacht, whereby one of the chromosomes is slightly longer than the other. The genetic information in this section is therefore available in three ways.
