Coexistence of XX/XY sex mosaicism and autosomal trisomy in prenatal diagnosis is particularly rare. Herein, we report the first, to our knowledge, case of a fetus with cyclopia, ambiguous genitalia and a 47,XX,+13,inv9[47]/47,XY,+13[13] karyotype detected at 13 weeks of gestation after chorionic villus sampling. Molecular analysis after prenatal diagnosis suggests that this is a case of sex mosaicism coexisting with trisomy 13, rather than chimera.
