Abstract

Marker chromosomes present a problem in genetic counseling because there are often no clear phenotype-karyotype correlations. We present the clinical findings in a patient who is mosaic for a supernumerary marker chromosome 20 determined by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and compare these findings to others reported in the literature.
