Abstract excerpt
Familial apparently balanced translocations (ABTs) are usually not associated with a phenotype; however, rarely, ABTs segregate with discordant phenotypes in family members carrying identical rearrangements. The current study was a follow-up investigation of four familial ABTs, where whole exome sequencing (WES) was implemented as a diagnostic tool to identify the underlying genetic aetiology of the patients'...
