• Babinski Sign

  The patient was referred to our Unit because of persistent thrombocytopenia and syndactyly, pes planus and a bilateral Babinski sign. The remainder of physical examination revealed curly hair, thin upper lip, broad nasal bridge and tip. [omicsonline.org]

Considering that ring chromosomes are rare in acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), it is difficult to risk stratify patient prognosis, particularly when the ring chromosome occurs as the sole abnormality. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Many parents are given a very pessimistic prognosis when their child is first diagnosed: the doctors who make the diagnosis have rarely seen other patients who are affected by the same disorder, and are unsure what outcomes they should expect. [eurordis.org]

But even if clinical diagnosis is obvious, it has to be confirmed by cytogenetic examination, because almost all chromosomal disorders may exist in different cytogenetic variants with very different prognosis for the family. [justjamesinfo.wordpress.com]
