Balanced Chromosomal Rearrangement in Recurrent Spontaneous Abortions: A Case Report

One of the major causes of spontaneous abortion before the fourth month of pregnancy is chromosomal abnormalities. We report an unusual case of a familial balanced chromosomal translocation in a consanguineous couple who experienced 4 spontaneous abortions. Chromosomal studies were performed on the basis of G-banding technique at high resolution and revealed 46, XX, t (16 6) (p12 q26) and 46, X...

Correlation of Copper and Zinc in Spontaneous Abortions

Objective Trace metals are required in minute amounts for normal human growth and physiological function of the body and might play a vital role in the pregnancy and outcome. The study was conducted to assess the role of trace metals zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) among women with history of spontaneous abortion (SAb Cases) with respect to women without such history (Controls).

Balanced Chromosomal Translocations of Parents in Relation to Spontaneous Abortions

The most significant complication of pregnancy is recurrent miscarriage. Numerous factors have been described as associations with recurrent wastage such as: uterine abnormalities, immunological factors, endocrinologic imbalance and chromosomal defects. Cytogenetic evaluation of couples with recurrent pregnancy losses is performed on the basis of G-banding technique only after other possible et...
