A term female newborn with partial trisomy 13q [46,XX, -18, +der(18) t(13;18) (l3qter->13q22::18q23->l8pter) pat], is described with unbalanced translocation and isolated absence of the pulmonary valve. The clinical manifestations included hypertelorism, corneal opacification, high arch palate, rocker-bottom feet, polydactyly (both hands and feet), respiratory distress and intractable congestive heart failure. Echocardiogram showed isolated absent pulmonary valve. This ponsents report such a combination in partial chromosome 13 trisomy.
