ABSTRACT Investigations have shown a marked likelihood that a patient with Klinefelter's syndrome is the father of a son, and it is not unlikely that he is also the father of another, now deceased, son. Owing to the relatively common finding of positive sex chromatin in male infants and the striking paucity of cases showing Klinefelter's syndrome, the present case is presumably not excessively rare.
