title: Chromosome anomalies in normal androgenized infertile males.
abstract: Chromosome anomalies are known to play a role in human infertility. Chromosome analysis of 103 normal androgenized infertile azoospermic (97.1%) or oligospermic (2.9%) males revealed that the frequency of chromosomal abnormalities was 8.7%. Two patients (1.94%) had a 46,XX chromosome complement, one patient (0.97%) had a 45,X karyotype, two patients (1.94%) had a 45,XY,t(13;14)(p11;q11) karyotype, one patient (0.97%) had a 46,XY,inv(9)(p12;q13) chromosome constitution, two patients (1.94%) had a 46,XY,del(Y)(q12) karyotype, and one patient (0.97%) had a 45X/46,X+marker the nature of which was not clarified.
