Summary
A woman presented a complex chromosome rearrangement with translocation between chromosome 2 and 4 in addition to an insertion of the band 4q12→q13 in the long arm of chromosome 18. The authors present a case study of the daughter who displayed the abnormal chromosome 18 and trisomy of band 4q12→q13.
