Non-Robertsonian translocation t (2;11) is associated with infertility in an oligospermic man

Abstract: Infertility is a major health problem which affects approximately 22% of married couples in reproductive age. Chromosomal defects are the most common genetic abnormalities in infertile men, with an incidence of cytogenetic abnormalities ranging from 2.1% to 15.5%. We describe here the clinical and cytogenetic studies carried out in a couple with repeated abortions. Cytogenetic analysis of the couple showed a de novo chromosomal translocation t (2;11)(p14;q21) in the male partner and a normal 46, XX karyotype i… Show more

“…Karyotype analysis is the most powerful and widely used application in reproductive medicine (Pasquier et al, 2016). Chromosomal abnormality is associated with infertility, and its incidence ranges from 2.1 to 15.5% in infertile men (Ananthapur et al, 2014). In this study, the detection rate of chromosomal abnormalities was 10.3% (234/2,282).…”

“…Most balanced chromosomal aberrations are not associated with a clinical phenotype; however, in some patients they may disrupt gene structure (Olesen et al, 2001;Pernice et al, 2002;Bianco et al, 2011;Li et al, 2014). Ananthapur et al (2014) reported the unusual non-Robertsonian translocation 46,XY,t(2;11)(p14;q21), found in an infertile oligozoospermic man with no clinical manifestations other than primary infertility.…”

“…The rate of chromosomal abnormality in infertile men is 2.1-19.48% (Yatsenko et al, 2010;Fu et al, 2012;Ghorbel et al, 2012;Quan et al, 2013;Ananthapur et al, 2014;Kate et al, 2014). Chromosomal defects may decrease male fertility and increase the history of female adverse fertility outcomes, e.g., recurrent spontaneous abortion or stillbirth.…”
