The principal result expected is the discovery of inframicroscopic chromosomal rearrangements in regions of the genome not yet known to be involved, or mutations in known candidate genes;
The identification of such a mosaic rearrangement in an affected infant would lead to improved genetic counselling. Indeed, as this mosaicism is a consequence of a genetic event occurring at an early stage of embryogenesis, it would be possible to confirm the sporadic nature of the observed disorder and therefore to predict a very low or even negligible risk of recurrence for the couple concerned. For the affected infant, the risk for his/her own offspring will be assessed according to the nature of the genetic anomaly discovered. For medical practice, investigators hope that this study will lead to a clearer definition of the screening modalities for mosaicism in the disorders concerned. In particular, they hope to determine whether or not it is possible to dispense with a skin biopsy, which is more invasive than a blood sample.
