title: A familial MCA/MR syndrome due to translocation t(10;16) (q26;p13.1): report of six cases.
abstract: A minute familial translocation t(10;16) (q26;p13.1) was detected in a family with 6 affected children in 2 generations and 9 carriers in 3 generations. This apparently unique translocation is associated with a deleterious syndrome which includes fetal hydrops, ascites, complex congenital heart defect, psychomotor retardation, failure to thrive, hypotonia, narrow palpebral fissures, abnormally modeled, apparently low-set ears, cleft palate, thumb abnormalities, hypogenitalism, inguinal hernia, and sparse hair. All children of known or presumed carriers have been either balanced or unbalanced carriers of this translocation.
