Abstract:

Reciprocal chromosome translocations, especially balanced rearrangements are known to be one of the main causes of recurrent miscarriage. In this case report, we performed the clinical and cytogenetic analysis on a young couple with two pregnancy losses. Though the couple had a normal clinical study, the cytogenetic analysis revealed a balanced reciprocal translocation of t(2;14)(q11;q24) whereas the husband has a normal karyotype of 46,XY. Indeed based on the literature, this is the first report of t(2;14)(q11;q24) related to pregnancy loss. Therefore, cytogenetic tests are recommended for couples with a history of miscarriage more than twice.

Here, we report the inheritance of a translocation between chromosomes 12 and 16 in a family with a history of five consecutive blighted ova and an offspring with three cell lines of different genotypes. We assessed parental karyotypes and identified a het...

Balanced Reciprocal Translocation t(X;1) in a Girl with Tall Stature and Primary Amenorrhea

AbstractChromosomal translocations constitute one of the most important, yet uncommon, causes of primary amenorrhea and gonadal dysgenesis. Although X-autosome translocations are frequently associated with streak gonads and clinical features of the Turner syndrome, the majority of X-autosome carriers may present with a variable phenotype, developmental delay, and recognizable X-linked syndrome ...
