RUNX1T1/RUNX1 Probe Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization in Placenta of a Stillborn Fetus
This study examines the use of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with RUNX1T1/RUNX1 probes in a paraffin-embedded section of the placenta from a stillborn fetus with Down syndrome. The fetus presented with severe thrombocytopenic disorder (TMD) and acute megakaryoblastic leukemia (AMKL), linked to a GATA1 mutation. Findings highlight the genetic complexities associated with placental anomalies in affected cases, contributing to our understanding of prenatal development and associated conditions.
