Abstract

Chromosomal rearrangement can disrupt gene function by interfering with coding sequences or their regulatory regions. The breakpoint in these rearrangements can pinpoint the disease-related gene's location. This paper presents two rare cases of chromosomal rearrangement involving chromosome 6 (6p24-25) and chromosome 14 (14q22-23). The first case involves a girl with hearing impairment, inheriting a balanced translocation of chromosomes 6 and 14 from her father. The second case describes a dysmorphic baby boy with congenital bilateral choanal atresia and a tertiary trisomy, involving a translocation between chromosome 6 (6p24) and chromosome 14 (14q22), resulting in a derivative chromosome (14) in addition to the normal complement of chromosomes 6 and 14. The boy's mother had a history of four recurrent miscarriages. However, the origin of this tertiary trisomy in the second case presented could not be delineated because the parents did not consent and declined their blood samples for karyotyping. Parental karyotyping and chromosomal analysis are crucial for investigating recurrent miscarriages, identifying genetic causes, guiding reproductive decisions, and improving successful pregnancy outcomes for affected couples.
