We report a cryptic translocation ascertained in a family after the birth of a mentally retarded proband. High resolution chromosome examination revealed that the father had a subtle translocation between chromosome 5 and chromosome 13, 46, XY, t(5;13) (q35.2;q34). Two specific, non-routine techniqu
We identified a familial balanced translocation involving chromosomes 10 and 13 through the finding of a satellited 10p chromosome in a fetus. The phenotype of two unbalanced products of the translocation resulting in pure monosomy 10p13 and trisomy 10p13 is described. This familial case and two of
