NEOCENTRIC

Cases without clinical findings
Similar imbalances – no sSMC
Cases with clinical findings
Similar imbalances – no sSMC
Cases with isochromosome 18p
Cases without clear clinical correlation
Cases with discontinous sSMC
Cases with complex sSMC
Cases with UPD and sSMC
Cases with neocentromeres
Similar imbalances – no sSMC
Tumor
DISCLAIMER
In general 70% of sSMC carriers are clinically normal. The figures listed above

are based on the bias, that mainly clinically aberrant cases are studied and reported in literature!
