Editorial Reviews

This reference for clinicians and cytogeneticists who deal with rare chromosome aberrations analyzes and tabulates individual case reports to present a comprehensive catalog of the phenotypic effects of chromosome aberrations in humans. Cytogeneticist Schinzel (Institute of Medical Genetics, U. of Z<:u>rich) provides a short introduction to clinical cytogenetics. The aberrations are then listed in the order of chromosome numbers 1-22, triploidy, tetraploidy, and sex chromosomes. Clinical illustrations accompany the text throughout. Entries in the second edition no longer list malformation and author index, as these may more easily be searched for in the Cytogenetic Database. Annotation c.
