Chromosomal defects are the most common cause of inherited disorders and can also cause miscarriages. This book is intended as a practical guide to such abnormalities, their clinical significance, and the risks they pose for future pregnancies.
Chromosomal defects are the most common cause of inherited disorders and are also responsible for a large proportion of miscarriages. These defects include transpositions, duplications, insertions, deletions, nondisjunction and other structural abnormalities. This book is intended as a practical guide to such defects, their clinical significance, and the risks they pose for future pregnancies. Each chapter has two sections: biology and genetic counselling, the latter providing information intended to assist genetic counsellors and clients in deciding upon a course of action. The guide is designed not only for counsellors and laboratory workers in cytogenetics, but also as a reference work for medical geneticists and other physicians.
