Cytogenetic abnormalities in 179 cases with male infertility in Western Region of Turkey: Report and review
WOS: 000264178200008PubMed ID: 19184395In this study we aimed to evaluate the postnatally screened karyotype results in couples who were referred because of primary infertility between 2000 and 2006 in Izmir. The records of a total of 179 cases were evaluated retrospectively. A total of 21 cases (11.74%) showed chromosomal alteration. Thirteen (7.26%) were 47,XXY; three (1.68%) were pericentric inversion of chromosome 9; one (0.56%) 46,XY/45,XO; one (0.56%) 46,XY/47,XXY/48,XXXY; one (0.56%) 46,XY,t(X;1); one (0.56%) 46,XY/46,XY,del(Y)(q11.2) and one (0.56%) 46,XX. The rate of gonosomal chromosomal abnormalities was nearly three times higher in our region than the rate in the literature. Chromosomal analysis is strongly suggested particularly in those who suffer fertility problems
