Özet
STUDY QUESTION Do testis-specific cells have a normal karyotype in non-mosaic postpubertal Klinefelter syndrome (KS) patients with focal spermatogenesis and in non-mosaic prepubertal KS boys? SUMMARY ANSWER Spermatogonia have a 46, XY karyotype, and Sertoli cells surrounding these spermatogonia in postpubertal patients also have a 46, XY karyotype, whereas, in prepubertal KS boys, Sertoli cells surrounding the spermatogonia still have a 47, XXY karyotype. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY A significant proportion of patients with non-mosaic KS can have children by using assisted reproductive techniques thanks to focal spermatogenesis. However, the karyotype of the cells that are able to support focal spermatogenesis has not been revealed. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION Testicular biopsy samples from non …
