Abstract
Objective
To help determine the pathogenicity of 4p16.1 microduplications, we reported two asymptomatic families carrying this variation.
Case report
We present the prenatal diagnosis and genetic analysis of two normal families with 4p16.1 microduplications.
Conclusion
This paper highlights two families with clinically asymptomatic 4p16.1 microduplications that assisted in determining the pathogenicity of this fragment. The findings can be used as a reference for genetic counseling in cases of similar abnormalities encountered during future prenatal diagnosis.
