✦ Synopsis
A pericentric inversion of chromosome 9 has been detected in 10 unrelated families. The break points are identical and the inversions involved the heterochromatic segment. The effects of inversion of chromosome 9 on different aspects of reproductive failure are discussed.

A girl with 46, XX, de1 (11) (q23), inv (9) (p13,q13) is described. The patient shows many dysplastic signs mainly of the face and skull. The pericentric inversion of chromosome 9 has been inherited from the mother (46, XX, inv (9) (p13,q13)).
## Abstract Eighty normal Caucasians were studied by CBG technique for estimation of size and inversion heteromorphisms of chromosomes 1, 9, and 16. Size heteromorphisms were classified into one of five sizes using 16p as a reference standard: very small, small, intermediate, large, and very large.
