Trisomy for the short arm of chromosome No. 10

The clinical and cytogenetic data are presented of a child with multiple congenital malformations, including cystic kidneys. A trisomy for at least the larger part of the short arm of chromosome No. 10 in association with a translocation between chromosomes Nos. 10 and 14 was found in peripheral blood lymphocytes and skin fibroblasts. Both the mother and a younger sib were balanced carriers of the translocation.
