Summary
A 46,XY,r(10) karyotype was found in lymphocytes and skin fibroblasts cultured from a 8-month-old male showing multiple malformations and severe mental retardation. A comparison of the clinical features observed in cases in which a 10 ring was identified by means of banding techniques has been also attempted.
