Abstract

In this article, the diagnosis of partial trisomy 14 and partial trisomy 22 detected in a newborn with intrauterine growth retardation, dysmorphic facial features and congenital cardiac anomaly is discussed. The incidence of congenital anomalies in live births is 2-6%, and it is thought that genetic reasons are responsible for 60-80% of them. Chromosomal anomalies are seen in 25-35% of congenital anomalies. Reciprocal translocations are the most common cause of these chromosomal rearrangements. In the examinations performed, 46, XY t(14;22) (q24;q11.2) balanced reciprocal translocation carriage was detected in the newborn’s parents with a history of recurrent miscarriage. In such cases, it is essential to provide parents with genetic counseling and discuss prenatal diagnosis options for subsequent pregnancies.
