rectaal toucher(Dutch)
reciprocal translocation(English)
- a transfer of genetic material between homologous chromosomes. These are most commonly balanced exchanges, such that no genetic material is lost and individuals are phenotypically normal. While reciprocal translocations are the most common structural chromosome abnormality in the general population (0.2% of newborns), infertile men are even more likely to have this abnormality (0.6%). Patients may have a normal phenotype, but this chromosomal abnormality can result in abnormal meiosis. The resulting sperm are more likely to have aneuploidy, which can manifest with recurrent pregnancy loss
