Abstract

Mixed gonadal dysgenesis (45X/46XY and its variants) is a form of sex chromosome DSD (disorders of sex development). The clinical presentation of such patients is highly variable and mild variants may go unnoticed. Here we discuss a 13-year-old patient with mixed gonadal dysgenesis (45X/46 XY mosaicism) who was being reared as female, presented to us with virilizing symptoms and signs. The management issues in such patients were discussed.

Keywords : Mixed Gonadal Dysgenesis; Variant; Disorder of Sex Development

Abbreviations : DSD: Disorders of Sex Development; FISH: Fluorescence in Situ Hybridization; HCG: Human Chorionic Gonadotropin; MGD: Mixed Gonadal Dysgenesis; CIS: Carcinoma in Situ
