Cryptic genomic imbalances in patients with de novo or familial apparently balanced translocations and abnormal phenotype.

Abstract Carriers of apparently balanced translocations are usually phenotypically normal; however in about 6% of de novo cases, an abnormal phenotype is present. In the current study we investigated 12…
