Two familial 9;17 translocations with variable effect on male carriers fertility.
Two similar, but not identical, familial reciprocal translocations are described. In the first family, four sterile males inherited reciprocal translocation t(9;17)(q11'3) of maternal origin. In the second family, with the male fertility not impaired, reciprocal t(9;17)(q11;q11) was observed in four members of the family.
