The meiotic segregation of 24 spermatozoa obtained from a 47,XXY male is
described. Three-colour fluorescence in-situ hybridization with probes for
chromosomes X, Y and 18 was used. Five spermatozoa carried an X chromosome,
seven carried a Y, six had an XY gonosomal complement, five were missing
the sex chromosome and one spermatozoon was presumably diploid with an
XX/1818 complement. Our results support the hypothesis that XXY cells are
able to complete meiosis. In this patient, the percentage of spermatozoa
with an abnormal number of sex chromosomes increased from 1/6 (17%) among
spermatozoa with normal morphology to 11/18 (61%) in spermatozoa with
abnormal morphology.
