摘要
We present 4 recently diagnosed cases of inverted tandem duplication with involvement of the respective terminal band, Based on these 4 cases and review of the literature, the term ''inverted terminal duplication'' is proposed to designate specifically the type of inverted tandem duplication which involves the terminal band, A modification of the previous hypothesis of mechanism of origin is advanced, It is speculated further that a telomeric deletion of a meiotic chromosome followed by a U-type reunion of the chromatids, considered to be the first steps of the proposed mechanism of origin, may not be a rare gonadal event.
