Abstract
We report on a male with Kallmann syndrome (KS) and an apparently balanced complex chromosome rearrangement (CCR): 46,XY,t(3;9)(9;12)(q13.2;q21.2p13;q15). This is the first known report of a CCR in the KS and the second reported case of a definitive autosomal chromosome abnormality with KS. Possible relationships between the cytogenetic abnormality and KS are discussed.Keywords
