BACKGROUND Robertsonian translocation is one of the major chromosomal rearrangements with a prevalence rate of 0.1% of the general population and 1% of the infertile population. In this report, we present a nonhomologous Robertsonian translocation in a female patient with a history of repeated abortions. METHODS A couple with the complaint of repeated abortions was admitted in the Institute of Genetics and Hospital for Genetic Diseases in Begumpet, Hyderabad, India for cytogenetic evaluation. Chromosomal analysis of the couple revealed an abnormal karyotype in the female partner with 45, XX, rob (14, 15) (q10; q10) chromosomal constitution, while the male partner showed normal 46, XY karyotype. CONCLUSIONS The cytogenetic analysis of couples with repeated abortions is mandatory to identify any probable chromosomal aberrations. Prenatal diagnosis should be offered to couples with repeated abortions in the case of future pregnancies.
