trisomy 8 mosaicism

Constitutional trisomy 8 mosaicism is compatible with a normal phenotype (#7450754#) and is associated with an increased risk of haematological proliferations (#9880228#, #8913726#, #11746991#).

Some authors have suggested than the presence of a tumoral trisomy 8 is an argument to investigate for a constitutional trisomy 8 mosaicism (#8913726#, #14734230#).
