X‐linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and t(X;12) in a female

A female patient with features of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) was found to be a carrier of a de novo t(X;12) with a breakpoint in Xq13.1. This is the second instance of an X/autosome translocation, with apparently the same X breakpoint, reported in HED.
