Trisomy for the short arm of chromosome No. 10

To the authors knowledge there is a single previous report of confirmed trisomy for the short arm of chromosome No 10 (Hustinx et al., 1974). In this paper we present a further case of trisomy 10p, resulting from 3 : 1 segregation of maternal balanced translocation, t(3;10)(q;11), in a female infant aged 7 months and showing numerous somatic anomalies.
