Partial and mosaic trisomies are part of incomplete trisomies. As for partial trisomies, the element in excess is an incomplete chromosome which has lost part of its genetic material. [translation] The possibility of the presence of other cytogenetic abnormalities such as pericentric and paracentric inversions, undetermined mosaicism, deletion or duplication of a small unattached segment of another chromosome, translocation, and others makes it unwise to call these cases or others similar to them "partial trisomy" or "antimongoloid", trying to create a heterogeneous syndrome based on very few phenotypic characteristics they may share. 1, record 1, English, - partial%20trisomy
