title: De novo balanced 5;21 translocation in a child with acrobrachycephaly, ventriculomegaly, pulmonary stenosis, ectopic anus and mental retardation.
abstract: An apparently balanced de novo reciprocal translocation t(5;21) (q13;q22) was demonstrated in a girl with acrobrachycephaly, ventriculomegaly, pulmonary stenosis and anal malformation. The possible relationships between her karyotype and malformations are discussed.
