Chromosome 16. Trisomy 16 is a chromosomal abnormality in which there are 3 copies of chromosome 16 rather than two. [1] It is the most common autosomal trisomy leading to miscarriage, and the second most common chromosomal cause (closely following X-chromosome monosomy). [2] About 6% of miscarriages have trisomy 16. [3]
Karyotype of a human with Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome). Trisomies can occur with any chromosome, but often result in miscarriage rather than live birth.For example, Trisomy 16 is most common in human pregnancies, occurring in more than 1%, but the only surviving embryos are those having some normal cells in addition to the trisomic cells (mosaic trisomy 16). [3]
Trisomic rescue (also known as trisomy rescue or trisomy zygote rescue) is a genetic phenomenon in which a fertilized ovum containing three copies of a chromosome loses one of these chromosomes (anaphase lag) to form a diploid chromosome complement. [1] If both of the retained chromosomes come from the same parent, then uniparental disomy ...
Turner syndrome (TS), commonly known as 45,X, or 45,X0, [note 1] is a chromosomal disorder in which female cells have only one X chromosome instead of two, or are partially missing an X chromosome (sex chromosome monosomy) leading to the complete or partial deletion of the pseudoautosomal regions (PAR1, PAR2) in the affected X chromosome.
Chromosome 16 is one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in humans. People normally have two copies of this chromosome. People normally have two copies of this chromosome. Chromosome 16 spans about 90 million base pairs (the building material of DNA) and represents just under 3% of the total DNA in cells .

Triploid syndrome, also called triploidy, is a chromosomal disorder in which a fetus has three copies of every chromosome instead of the normal two. If this occurs in only some cells, it is called mosaic triploidy and is less severe.
The most frequently seen trisomic cells in confined placental mosaicism involve chromosomes 2, 3, 7, 8 and 16. The next frequently involved are 9, 13, 15, 18, 20 and 22. [ 8 ] It has been observed that CPM involving the sex chromosomes usually has no adverse effects on fetal development. [ 9 ]
