Abstract

Chromosomal translocation is a kind of common chromosomal abnormality. The carriers with chromosomal translocation could have more chance of normal pregnancy with the help of fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH). This is a review aimed at analyzing the meiosis types of the translocation chromosome. The strategy of preimplantation genetic diagnosis for the carriers with chromosomal translocation is also discussed.
