• trisomy 22
  9 May 2005

  Trisomy 22 is frequently seen in first trimester miscarriages but is extremely rare in life-borns. Trisomy 22 is commonly found among spontaneous abortions, second in frequency of occurrence only to trisomy 16. Most earlier reports of surviving trisomy 22 cases in the literature are thought to represent the product of unbalanced 11;22 translocations or the result of undetected mosaicism, since this condition is thought to manifest early embryonic or fetal lethality.

• ulcerative colitis
  2 March 2004

  Definition: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is generally considered an inflammatory disorder that always involves the rectum and may also involve more proximal portions of the colon, but always in a diffuse and continuous (non-segmental) fashion.
  Earlier biopsy studies have shown that both rectal sparing and patchy disease may occur during the natural history of UC and may, in fact, be accentuated by oral or enema therapy. (#20410806#)
