title: A case of mosaicism involving an unstable 13/14 Robertsonian translocation.
abstract: Prenatal diagnosis of mosaicism involving an apparently unstable 13/14 Robertsonian translocation is reported. This illustrates the difficulties encountered in counselling when mosaicism is ascertained prenatally. Other reported examples of apparently unstable Robertsonian translocations are discussed.
