Fetal death associated with a t(1;14) in three generations

Fetal death associated with a t(1;14) in three generations Fetal death is a common phenomenon; parental chromosome study may uncover the cause of the problem and contribute to the management of the couple involved. Discovery of a translocation provides a firm basis for genetic counseling, detection of carriers, and prenatal diagnosis. We have studied a young couple with a history of 4 consecutive spontaneous abortions before cytogenetic study demonstrated the father to carry a t (l:14). The translocation was found in 2 other adults, a liveborn child, and a fetus, in a total of 3 generations. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A Wiley

Abstract

Fetal death is a common phenomenon; parental chromosome study may uncover the cause of the problem and contribute to the management of the couple involved. Discovery of a translocation provides a firm basis for genetic counseling, detection of carriers, and prenatal diagnosis. We have studied a young couple with a history of 4 consecutive spontaneous abortions before cytogenetic study demonstrated the father to carry a t (l:14). The translocation was found in 2 other adults, a liveborn child, and a fetus, in a total of 3 generations.
