Edward syndrome is rare in live births in comparison to most common Down and Patau syndromes. The estimated incidences are one in 6000 live births and interestingly 70 to 80% those affected are females. The occurrence of double aneuploidy involving XXY + 18 is very rare in live born however, most of cases are available with spontaneous abortions. Here, we report a 07 day a male infant with typi...

total or partial absence or excess of the sex chromosomes produces different karyotypes and phenotypical abnormalities. upon retrospective analysis of the results of 163444 cytogenetic tests that were performed during 28 years (1987-2015) in this center, different types of sex chromosomal aberrations and the clinical phenotypes are delineated in this article. moreover, the clinical course and t...

Approximately 15% of couples in the reproductive age group worldwide are affected by infertility, and it is estimated that about 40-50% of infertilities are of male origin. Genetic factor accounts for 10-15% of severe male infertility, including chromosomal aberrations and single gene mutations (Ferlin et al, 2006). After the Klinfelter syndrome, Y chromosomal microdeletions are the most freque...

in this study, chromosome analyses were performed on 70 infertile azoospermic and oligospermic (<20 million/ml) men, and also cultures of peripheral blood lymphocytes by high resolution banding method were analysed as well. it is revealed 8 (11.43 percent) men with chromosomal abnormality. there were 31.4 percent patients with azoospermia and 68.6 percent with oligospermia from several thousand...

Among 17786 karyotyres performed in our center,during 18 years (1357-1375),1300(7.3%) cases of chromosome 21 aberration,including 1284(98.77%) of Down syndrome have been detected.1191 of cases (92.76%) born free trisomy 21:61 cases (4.75%) revealed translocation and 32 cases (2.4%) showed mosaic pattern.among the pateints,59 had robertsonian translocation,2 had translocation between chromosome ...
