Azoospermia can be diagnosed with spermiogram analysis, and karyotyping is the golden standard to explain the etiology. In this study, we investigated two male cases with azoospermia and male infertility for chromosomal abnormalities. Their phenotypes and physical and hormonal examinations were both normal. In karyotyping G-banding and NOR staining, a rare ring chromosome 21 abnormality was detected in the cases and no microdeletion in chromosome Y. Ring abnormality, deletion size, and deleted regions were shown with subtelomeric FISH (.ish r(21)(p13q22.3?)(D21S1446-)) and array CGH analyses. Due to the findings, bioinformatics, protein, and pathway analyses were done to detect a candidate gene through common genes in two cases’ deleted regions or ring chromosome 21.

A rare ring chromosome 21 abnormality is associated with azoospermia in two different phenotypically normal cases
