Case report: Prenatal diagnosis of Kagami-Ogata syndrome in a Chinese family.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this work was to explore the genetic cause of the proband (Ⅲ2) presenting with polyhydramnios and gastroschisis. Copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq), methylation-specific multiplex PCR (MS-PCR), and methylation-specific multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MS-MLPA) were used to characterize the genetic etiology. CNV-seq revealed a deletion of 732.26 kb at 14q32.2q32.31 in the proband (Ⅲ2) and its mother (Ⅱ2). MS-PCR showed the maternal allele was missing in the proband, while paternal allele was missing in its mother. MS-MLPA showed deletion of the DLK1, MEG3, MIR380, and RTL1 genes of both the proband and its mother. MEG3 imprinting gene methylation increased in the proband, while decreased in its mother. It was indicated t
