Abstract

Dicentric chromosomes are among the most common structural changes of the Y chromosome (deletions, rings, Y-autosomal or Y-X translocations, isochromosomes, and dicentrics). Among these structural abnormalities, dicentric Y chromosomes are the most commonly found (Hsu 1994; Yoshida et al. 1997).
