## Abstract The SaethreβChotzen syndrome is an autosomal, dominantly inherited craniosynostosis caused by mutations in the basic helixβloopβhelix transcription factor gene __TWIST1__. This syndrome has hitherto not been associated with an increased risk of cancer. However, recent studies, using a m

A 46-year-old man with chronic myelocytic leukemia had a new variant translocation between chromosome 22 and chromosome 7 in bone marrow cells. No involvement of chromosome 9 was seen. The patient entered blastic transformation within half a year, by which time he had acquired an isochromosome 17 in
A familial balanced t(7;9) (q36;q34) was reported recently. Analysis of the craniofacial features of 3 of the sibs showed signs of holoprosencephaly. Two of the sibs have an unbalanced derivative chromosome leading to del(7) (q36) and dup(9) (q34), while the other has a cytogenetically balanced tran
## Abstract We report a family in which six individuals were carriers of a translocation between chromosomes 8 and 12. The balanced carriers had a chromosome constitution: 46,XX or 46,XY,t(8;12)(021;p13). Six individuals in five generations were mentally retarded. Three of them were examined; their
