Making predictions regarding the phenotypic outcomes of a variety of duplications/deletions in the dicentric Y chromosome generally depends on the breakpoint location and also the level of mosaicism (45, X cell lines);in certain instances, these may not be detected and result in variations running between male, abnormal female, or ambiguity in individual genitalia.
