Abstract
A carrier status for balanced translocation in either of the parents increases the risk of congenital malformation in the offspring. A case of multiple congenital anomalies in a female newborn was found to be associated with trisomy 4p and partial monosomy 18q as a result of a reciprocal translocation, t(4; 18) (p11; q21.3) in the father. The clinical and cytogenetic findings are compared with characteristic features of trisomy 4p, monosomy 18q and two similar cases reported earlier.
