Heteromorphism or chromosomal variants are usually attributed to structural variations in constitutive heterochromatin. In the case of chromosome 18, 25 cases of 18ph+ have been reported to date. Using the Primed In Situ Labelling technique (PRINS) to study 2 new cases of 18ph+, we have been able to confirm their molecular nature and assuming a mechanism of formation. Although such chromosomal variants are usually thought to have no adverse clinical consequence, a review of the literature shows that many cases were diagnosed because of recurrent abortion, malformed or mentally retarded children suggesting the possible relationship between 18ph+ and such clinical outcomes.
