Klinefelter's syndrome is a condition caused by a chromosome abnormality in males (specifically, a nondisjunction); sufferers have a pair of X sex chromosomes instead of just one. Human males usually have an XY karyotype. The XXY chromosome arrangement is one of the most common genetic abnormalities, occurring in about 1 in 1,000 male births, but the symptoms that may result from having the extra chromosome are less common.
