Abstract
A large pericentric inversion, inv(8) (p11q24), was ascertained in a male investigated because his wife had had repeated miscarriages. The inversion segregated in 3 generations of the family, and no chromosomally unbalanced offspring were detected. The miscarriage and the inversion could not be causally related.
