We studied the pedigrees of 14 families segregating a reciprocal translocation with one breakpoint in chromosome 17p13 and the other in the distal region of another autosome. All 14 were ascertained on the basis of an affected index case: 13 had Miller-Dieker syndrome (MDS) and one had dup(17p). In
A child with a 7q + chromosome abnormality had a father with 0.5% mosaicism for a balanced 7;14 translocation. This mosaicism was not found in 100 fibroblasts. This degree of mosaicism is well below the limits usually detected by standard clinical cytogenetic protocols. However, the one abnormal cel
Carriers of the standard translocation t(11;22) (q23.3;q11.2) produce only one type of unbalanced offspring, a tertiary trisomy resulting into the karyotype 47,XX or XY, +der(22)t(11;22)(q23.3;q11.2), usually derived from the mother. The exception is one single patient 47,XY,t(11;22)(q23.3;q11.2), +
