Klinefelter syndrome orKlinefelter's syndromeis the set of symptoms resulting from additional X genetic material in males. Also known as47,XXYorXXY, Klinefelter syndrome is agenetic disorderin which there is at least one extraX chromosometo a standard human malekaryotype, for a total of 47chromosomesrather than the 46 found in genetically typical humans.While females have an XX chromosomal makeup, and males an XY, individuals with Klinefelter syndrome have at least two X chromosomes and at least oneY chromosome.Because of theextra chromosome, individuals with the condition are usually referred to as "XXY males", or "47,XXY males".
