K+C+: both results of karyotype analysis and CMA were positive; K-C+: the results of CMA were positive, while karyotype analysis results were negative; K+C-: the results were karyotype analysis positive, while CMA results were negative; K-C-: both results of karyotype analysis and CMA were negative. aOne case was chr8 uniparental disomy (UPD). bTwo cases were pathogenic or likely pathogenic CNVs. Three cases were likely benign CNVs. Others were VUS. cTwo cases were low-ratio chromosome mosaics. One case was 46,XX,inv(7)(q33q35). Four cases were chromosome polymorphism.
