Abstract
Background: Premature Centromere Division (PCD) was
observed in the chromosomes of metaphase spreads in a patient
with the history of recurrent abortions.
Case Report: Short term leukocyte cultures were set up with
blood sample from the woman with a history of recurrent
abortions for the past four consequent years. 25 % of the
metaphase spreads screened displayed premature centromere
division of the chromosomes in each of the cells.
Conclusion: This abnormal behavior of the centromeres may
predispose the individual to cell division errors due to
chromosome instability and the consequences of which may be
a spontaneous abortion.
