    AbstractAbnormalities in genes on the X chromosome or large defects in the X chromosome itself cause X-linked intellectual disability. The proband was a 27-year-old man. His medical history included strabismus, cryptorchidism, and severe intellectual disabilities. He also had epilepsy. His mother seemed to have slight intellectual disability. A physical examination revealed malformations. The lateral and fourth ventricles were dilated using computed tomography. CGG repeats in the 5' untranslated region of FMR1 gene were normal. G-banding and spectral karyotyping revealed a novel unbalanced X-autosomal translocation, with a karyotype of 46,Y,der (X) t (X;9) (p22.33;p12); distal trisomy of 9p and distal Xp nullisomy.
