    Abstract

    A family is reported in which two infants were born with different types of congenital abnormalities. Chromosome studies on one of the infants showed a partial trisomy of the short arms of a No. 3 chromosome. A family study showed many balanced translocation carriers who had extra chromosomal material on the long arms of a No. 12 chromosome.
