T w o apparently balanced chromosome rearrangements were identified in a 17-week fetus by analysis of cultured amniocytes. The fetal karyotype was 46,XX,t(2;16) (q33; q24), inv(7)(p15q11.23). Parental karyotypes were normal, indicating a de novo origin of both chromosome rearrangements in the fetus.
