Abstract

We report on a case of a prenatally diagnosed non-immune hydrops fetalis and cystic hygroma associated with the balanced translocation t(5;9)(q11.2;p22), an association that to our knowledge has not been reported previously. Both parents had normal karyotypes. The infant was born prematurely at 33 and 3/7 weeks gestation and expired 12 h after delivery.
