Parents of children with Trisomy 10q are invited to join our "trisomy10q" googlegroup. Once you are a member, you can send emails to trisomy10q@googlegroups.com and then all members will receive it. To sign-up you must contact us, since it is a private group.

Welcome
The permanent address for this site is http://trisomy10q.darylanderson.com. Please use this address in your favorites or web-links.This site is specifically designed and supported for the benefit of families of children with Distal Trisomy 10q. The primary objectives are:
- Provide a registry of children and families with 10q so families can contact each other.
- Provide a place where families can submit information on their children and experiences.
- Provide links to related web sites.
- Build a database for researchers on this syndrome.
What is Distal Trisomy 10q?
Distal Trisomy 10q is an extremely rare syndrome in which a person has an extra end (distal) portion of chromosome 10, specifically from the long arm (q). This can occur spontaneously at conception (de novo), or most commonly, from a translocation in one of the parents. In the latter case, one of the parents has the tails of chromosome 10 and another chromosome swapped. The parent has a full set of genes, but when the child gains one half of these chromosomes from the affected parent, the child ends up with an unbalanced set of genes. The effect on the child can vary from mild to very severe and is related to how many extra genes are present from 10q. Additionally, in translocation cases, there are generally missing genes from the complimentary chromosome of the translocation. See the images of chromosome 10q.For more information,
- Trisomy 10q Presentation at WCCA 2004. (This is a Powerpoint Presentation that surveys the syndrome. Presented at The World Congress on Chromosome Abnormalities in June of 2004.)
- Database of papers (This is an Excel file digest of information form all the 10q papers published through 2003. For the very inquisitive).
- Database of individuals (This is an Excel file digest of members of Distal Trisomy 10q Families and surveys done with them. Stripped of generally identifying information. For the very inquisitive).

- Unique Website (Read The Little Yellow Book. A very good pamphlet on rare genetic disorders and how to read a diagnosis.)

A Bit About Us
We are Daryl and Leslie Anderson. Daryl is a manager of integrated circuit design at Hewlett-Packard in Corvallis, Oregon. Leslie is a homemaker. We have a son, Jess, born 10/1/93, with Distal Trisomy 10q. For more on Jess, click on his link in the Families section below. We are not medically trained, but run this service out of a desire to help those of us that are dealing with this rare condition that seems to have no other support organization and apparently no specialists. We welcome any comments and corrections to information on the site.

Families
Below are specifics on children with Distal Trisomy 10q. If you would like to add your child to this site, please contact us with your information. We encourage you to share your experience through a letter, and possibly a photograph.Notes:
- Some entries below are limited in content for various reasons. For example, if we haven't been able to contact the family for permission to post detailed information, we will omit the parents name, e-mail address, and give the child's first name as an initial.
- These are all of the children that we know of, worldwide. We know that there are at least a few more.
- Dates are of in the format (month/day/year).
