title: [Chromosome anomalies and male infertility. A study of 1,444 subjects].
abstract: Chromosomal anomaly was detected in 7.6% of a cytogenetic survey of 1,444 infertile male azoospermia or oligozoospermia with a sperm count below 20 million/ml. Anomalies are especially of the sex-chromosome and of autosomal robertsonian translocation type. Distribution of these subjects on account of the sperm count has pointed out an increase of chromosomal anomalies in inverse ratio to the sperm count.
