Case report: chromatid exchange and predivision of chromatids as other sources of abnormal oocytes detected by preimplantation genetic diagnosis of translocations
1 Dec 1998
Abstract excerpt
Preimplantation genetic diagnosis of translocations can be performed on first polar bodies (PB) at metaphase stage using FISH with whole-chromosome painting DNA probes. Here we report the use of this method in a couple in which the female was a carrier of a balanced translocation 46,XX,t(11;16)(q21;q22). This case unusual in that two polar bodies showed recombination events between the homologue chromosomes of 11...
