Abstract

A family in which a pericentric inversion of chromosome 22, inv(22)(p11q12), is segregating is described. Special reference is made to a unique recombinant subject with a 'pure' partial monosomy 22 syndrome of maternal origin. An attempt has been made to correlate the phenotypic abnormalities with monosomy for the segment 22q12----qter.
