Abstract
Two cases of a pericentric inversion of chromosome 2 were found amongst 3619 blood specimens referred for karyotypic analysis. An additional three cases were identified within 1820 pregnancies presenting for genetic amniocentesis because of late maternal age. The implications for management in these cases are discussed.Keywords
