Summary
We describe a reciprocal translocation (10;13) in a man, ascertained through the study of meiosis in semen, and a partial trisomy 10q in his abnormal son. The phenotypic anomalies of the partial 10q trisomy syndrome are probably due to the presence in triplicate of the region q25→qter of chromosome 10.
