A structural X chromosome abnormality was found in the karyotype of a tall patient with gonadal dysgenesis and with no extragenital anomalies. Based on her mother's karyotype, which showed a pericentric inversion of the X chromosome: 46,X,inv(X)(p22q24), as well as from G and R banding, we concluded
A pericentric inversion of chromosome 12 has been followed in three large independently ascertained Danish families. Out of a total number of 52 persons examined, 25 were found to carry the inversion. The breakpoints in all three families were localized to p13 and q13, resulting in more than one-thi
