Hello,

After doing some research, I was able to find information for duplication of chromosome1, 2, 7, 15, 21, X, and Y, but not for 22. You might find more information at www.chromodisorder.org.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Arnold Zedd, Pediatrician
