This report describes a malformed infant with distal 2q trisomy/distal 18p monosomy due to adjacent segregation of a familial t(2;18). The rearrangement was present in four generations, and linkage studies were performed.

A malformed male newborn with partial trisomy for the distal part of the long arm chromosome 14 (14q23 leads to 14 qter) is described. This anomaly arose as a segregation product of a balanced t(14q-,11q+), translocation in the father.
The case of a 5-year-old boy with partial trisomy for the long arm of chromosome No. 4 is described. The pattern of abnormal development in this and in 12 previously reported cases is similar, but the phenotype is not as characteristic as that associated with some other types of chromosomal imbalanc
Clinical and cytogenetic data of two related patients, both trisomic for the segment 4q27 to qter, are reported. Familial studies determined that the mothers of the two probands were carriers of the same balanced translocation between chromosomes 4 and 18. Altogether, two partial trisomies 4q, five
