    Author: Zarina AL, Jamil MA, Ng SP, Rohana J, Yong SC, Salwati S, Boo NY.

    Abstract:
    Recurrent spontaneous abortion, defined as three consecutive abortions, occurs in approximately 1% to 2% of couples. Although the cause is unknown in up to 50% of cases, about 5% of these couples are found to be a balanced translocation carrier. We report a case in which the mother was identified to be a translocation carrier following the birth of a baby with multiple congenital abnormalities.
