Abstract
Reciprocal translocations are the most common structural chromosomal abnormalities in humans. In this study, the results of cytogenetic analysis performed on a couple with a reproductive history of three abortions and one intrauterine death referred to our laboratory are presented. Normal karyotype (46, XY) in male and reciprocal translocation 46XX t (6; 8) (q25-27; q23) in female were determined. In about 4% of couples with recurrent miscarriages, one of the parents is either a balanced reciprocal translocation or a robertsonian translocation carrier. Therefore, cytogenetic analysis should be recommended to couples with recurrent miscarriages. Keywords: Recurrent Abortions, Fetal Wastage, Reciprocal TranslocationKeywords
