title: [Chromosome breakage in incontinentia pigmenti].
abstract: Two cases of incontinentia pigmenti in a mother and her daughter are reported. An increase in structural chromosome aberrations of the chromatid type was observed, as already described by other authors. The aberrations rate in the same individual varied from culture to culture. Chromosomal breakage was also increased in apparently healthy family members.
