Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 August 2014
Summary
Analysis of the chromosomes of the proposita, who died at 10 weeks of age, revealed a D/E translocation. The child showed the following abnormalities: hypertelorism; high palate; low set, malformed ears; left paresis of facial nerve; micrognathia; hemimelia with radius aplasia on the left side; open foramen ovale; open ductus botalli; ventricel septum defect; pelvic kidney left; hypotonia of the musculature; shortened thigh-adductors; and a dorsal flexion of the first toe on both sides.
The chromosome complement of the father included both reciprocals of a translocation between a D- and E-chromosome. The chromosome number of both father and child was 2n=46.
