title: Cytogenetic studies in couples with multiple spontaneous abortions.
abstract: Chromosome studies were performed on a series of 117 couples referred for genetic counseling following two or more spontaneous abortions. Of the 222 individuals karyotyped, in five cases a chromosomal aberration was found. Four cases had a balanced translocation, and one revealed to be a 46,XX/45, X mosaic.
