Abstract

Balanced autosomal translocations are unusually observed in the patients with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. The patient with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism had balanced reciprocal translocation involving chromosomes 8 and 9. The patient’s father, two brothers and a sister have the same chromosomal translocation with no apparent physicial abnormalities. In this case report; the relation of autosomal translocations mentioned above and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism are discussed.

Keywords: Chromosome, balanced translocation, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism\r\n
