X-linked recessive chondrodysplasia punctata with XY translocation in a stillborn fetus

A case of X-linked recessive chondrodysplasia punctata (CP) is described. The finding of a reciprocal X-Y translocation involving the region distal to Xp22.3 and the presence of fluorescent Yp11.23 regions confirms the localization of X-linked recessive CP at p22.3. No gross peroxisomal abnormalities were present in the propositus.
