Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was performed on metaphases from cultured lymphocytes of two patients with abnormal G-band findings.
3 was hybridized to patient's metaphases and showed signal on both ends of the abnormal X chromosome (as well as the normal X chromosome) confirming the G-band impression that both ends of this chromosome was comprised of Xp.
