Combination of trio-based whole exome sequencing and optical genome mapping reveals a cryptic balanced translocation that causes unbalanced chromosomal rearrangements in a family with multiple anomalies
Background: Balanced translocation (BT) carriers can produce imbalanced gametes and experience recurrent spontaneous abortions (RSAs) and even give birth to a child with complex chromosomal disorders. Here, we report a cryptic BT, t(5; 6) (p15.31; p25.1), in the proband’s grandmother, which caused u...
