Am J Med Genet A. 2008 Dec 15;146A(24):3195-7. doi: 10.1002/ajmg.a.32578.

Abstract

We report on a 45,X male with hydrocephaly, lobar holoprosencephaly and ichthyosis. In situ hybridization and molecular analysis have demonstrated the presence of a mosaic SRY-bearing derivative X chromosome that included Yp and heterochromatic Yq fragments.
