Abstract:
Results of DNA study on two patients of gonadal dysgenesis with a 45,X/46,X,Ynf (non-fluorescent Y chromosome) karyotype are described. In one patient who developed gonadoblastoma, all 12 loci on the non-fluorescent part of Yq were detected. Another patient did not have gonadoblastoma at 20 years, and only the proximal 6 loci out of 12 were detected.
