...Therefore, AZF microdeletions can be considered as ‘pre-mutations’ for a subsequent complete loss of the Y chromosome in the AZF-deleted patients’ spermatozoa, increasing the risk of embryonic X0 cells (Vogt, 2004)....

...Infertile men with microscopically visible abberratio n Yq11 usually have a mosaic karyotype such as 46,X 45,X0 or 46,X idicY/45,X0, with a variable number 0 cells (Sandberg, 1985; Vogt, 1996; Vogt and Fernan 003)....
