A Diagnosis of Maternal 22q Duplication and Mosaic Deletion following Prenatal Cell-Free DNA Screening
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Concurrent microduplication and microdeletion of the chromosome 22q11.2 region are a rarely reported phenomenon. We describe a case of germline 22q11.21 microduplication syndrome with concurrent mosaic 22q11.2 deletion in a pregnant patient, identified by chromosomal microarray and FISH after noninvasive prenatal genetic screening (cfDNA) results discordant with family history. The patient was referred to maternal-fetal medicine (MFM) at 14 weeks' gestation secondary to an SNP-based cfDNA result of a suspected maternal 22q11.2 deletion and a fetal risk of 1 in 2 for 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. The patient reported a similar cfDNA result in a previous pregnancy; however postnatal chromosomal microarray on that child identified an atypical 22q11.21 microduplication. We report the maternal chromosomal microarray findings of a germline 726 kb 22q11.21 duplication and a mosaic 1.33 Mb 22q11.2 deletion and highlight the copy number variant data generated by cfDNA in this unique case. This family adds to the limited literature of concurrent 22q11.2 microduplication and microdeletion carriers.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
