Abstract
Cytogenetic studies in a girl with ventricular septal defect and mosaicism for trisomy 21 showed that trisomy was present in most cells from the myocardium and lung but in only a minority from the skin and lymphocytes. These findings emphasize the importance of tissue-specific mosaicism as a cause of certain cardiovascular diseases.Entities:
