It has been postulated that the deletion of band 13q32 may be associated with digital malformations, especially thumb and big toe anomalies. We report a family where the mother is carrying a balanced translocation between chromosomes 5p15 and 13q22. The offspring have a specific and well-defined phe

โฆ Synopsis
A female infant with partial trisomy 13, 46,XX,der(5),t(5;13) (p15;q22)mat, for the distal part of the long arm is reported. The clinical and autopsy findings were similar to those of complete trisomy 13, except for harelip and cleft palate, and sloping forehead. Fetal hemoglobin and nuclear appendages in polymorphonuclear leukocytes were normal. Loci for these traits are discussed.

A newborn infant with the clinical features of the Patau syndrome was found to have excess chromosome 13 material present as a tandem translocation involving the short arm of chromosome 6 and the long arm of an extra chromosome 13: 46,XY,t(6;13)(p24;q12). The major part of the long arm of the extra
A family is reported in which the propositus has an extra G-like chromosome with an unusual G-banding pattern. Cytogenetic family studies showed that the mother is a carrier of a balanced reciprocal translocation t(13;22), which does not affect the size and morphology of the chromosomes involved. Th
