ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analyze the deletion region for two fetal cases with large Yq deletions in order to provide genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>For both cases, amniotic fluid samples were cultured and analyzed with G banding and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Multiplex polymerase chain reaction was also carried out to amplify 15 sequence tagged sites (STS) of azoospermia factor (AZF) on the Y chromosome.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>For both samples, the karyotypes were determined as 46,X,del(Y)(pter→q11). No heterochromatin was found in C band. The karyotypes of their fathers were 46,XY, and heterochromatin was found in C band. STS analyses suggested that only sY82, sY84 and sY86 in AZFa were amplifiable while the other 12 STS were negative in amniotic fluid for the first case, which indicated deletions of AZFb, AZFd and AZFc. No AZF deletion was found in its father. For the second case, all 15 STS were amplifiable in the amniotic fluid, suggesting no AZF deletion. No AZF deletion was found in its father too.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Conventional karyotyping combined with FISH and molecular genetics techniques can enable characterization of AZF microdeletions and facilitate genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis.</p>
