A malformed child with a recombinant chromosome 7, rec(7) dup p, derived from a maternal pericentric inversion inv(7)(p15q36).

We report a child with facial dysmorphic features, hypoplasia of the external genitalia, intestinal malrotation, congenital cardiac defect, and minor limb anomalies. Chromosome studies showed a recombinant chromosome 7, rec(7) dup p, resulting from a maternal pericentric inversion inv(7)(p15 q36). Thus, this child had partial trisomy 7p in addition to a small distal monosomy 7. The clinical findings are compared with those found in previous reports of trisomy 7p. Finally, some general principles for genetic counselling are discussed.

Balanced reciprocal translocation (X;20) limited to Wilms' tumor in a Wiedemann-Beckwith syndrome.

A girl aged 4 years 3 months with sporadic unilateral Wilms' tumor associated with Wiedemann-Beckwith syndrome, but without aniridia, was found to have a t(X;20) in the tumor cells. Karyotypes of peripheral blood of the patient and her parents were normal. This translocation was confined to the tumor and not been previously reported either in nephroblastoma or any other neoplastic processes. Although there is no microscopic deletion on chromosome 11 and catalase activity was not decreased, we cannot rule out the possibility of a point mutation or a submicroscopic deletion.

An azoospermic male with a Y/autosome translocation.

This report describes an azoospermic male carrying a Y/autosome translocation. The patient had a 46,X,t(Y;10)(q12;p13) chromosome complement in a lymphocyte culture. The cytogenetic study of this patient is described, together with testicular histology, spermiogram, hormone levels, and clinical history.

Partial trisomy 14q.

A dysmorphic female born with partial trisomy of the proximal segment of the long arm of chromosome 14 had 47 chromosomes. The extra one was acrocentric, smaller than the D group, and bigger than the G-chromosome group. By GTG banding it was identified as a deleted chromosome 14, the karyotype being 47,XX,+del 14(q24). Chromosome analysis of the parents was normal.
