Direct transmission of a tandem duplication in the short arm of chromosome 8.

abstract：:For Incontinentia pigmenti Bloch-Sulzberger (IP) and Aicardi syndrome, an X-linked dominant transmission with lethality in hemizygous males has been proposed. The typical transition from inflammation to verrucous hypertrophy and hyperpigmented skin areas in IP suggests a gradual replacement of defective cells by norma...
