Atypical XX male with the <i>SRY</i> gene located at the long arm of chromosome 1 and a 1qter microdeletion

Abstract excerpt
Male individuals with a 46,XX karyotype have been designated as XX males. In 80% of the cases, the presence of Yp sequences, including the male sex-determining gene, SRY, has been demonstrated by molecular and/or fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analyses. In most cases, Yp sequences are located on the short arm of the X chromosome, resulting from unequal recombination between Yp and Xp during paternal...
