Abstract
Second-trimester amniocentesis of a twin gestation revealed one normal karyotype, whereas the other had a 46XY, 10 q+, indicating an excess of genetic material on chromosome number 10. A selective reduction of the affected twin was carried out on the 20th week of gestation; the outcome of pregnancy and delivery at term of the normal twin were both uneventful.
