Testicular dysgenesis and mental retardation in two incompletely masculinized XY-siblings.

Aberrations of fetal sexual development were studied in two retarded phenotypic female 46,XY dysgonadal sisters from a consanguineous marriage. Endocrine evaluation revealed an inadequate response of plasma-testosterone to human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) stimulation and a normal response to adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) administration. At exploratory laparotomy dysgenetic testes and remnants of the Müllerian and of the Wolffian duct were found. Loss of testicular function, resulting in male pseudohermaphroditism (MPH), can occur at different times during intrauterine development, resulting in a variety of clinical manifestations. A thorough evaluation is warranted in all patients in order to reach a correct diagnosis which is of importance for appropriate gender assignment and genetic counseling.

Normal Y sequences in Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome with total failure of masculinization.

We report an infant with characteristics of Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome who had anteverted nostrils, apparently low-set ears, micrognathia, high-arched palate, cleft palate, growth and psychomotor retardation, hypotonia, poor suck, cerebral hypotrophy and double renal pelvis and ureter. An EEG showed spike waves in the right temporal area. The patient appeared to have normal internal and external genitalia of the female type. Both ovaries were dysplastic. The karyotype was 46,XY. All of 26 loci on the Y chromosome were positive including SRY, a candidate gene for TDF.
