Novel homozygous mutation in a colombian patient with persistent müllerian duct syndrome: expanded phenotype

Abstract: The anti-Müllerian hormone triggers the regression of uterus and fallopian tubes in male embryos; if there are problems in the synthesis or action of this protein, Müllerian structures persist in an otherwise phenotypic male. The most frequent clinical presentation of Persistent Mullerian Duct syndrome is cryptorchidism and inguinal hernia. The few cases reported in adults are incidental findings or inguinal hernias. However, we present an adult male with history of bilateral cryptorchidism with unsuccessful o… Show more

“…Adding with our patients in China, there were 93 families with 78 different variants in AMH ( Supplementary Table 2 ) and 94 families with 80 different variants in AMHR2 have been reported ( Supplementary Table 3 ). 6 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 The relationship between the phenotypes and genotype of all patients was analyzed statistically ( ). There was no significant difference in anatomy between patients with either AMH or AMHR2 variants.…”

“…In our literature review, variants of AMH and AMHR2 were reported in 87.9% of all patients and were approximately equally distributed among the genes coding AMH and its type II receptor, AMHR2 . 6 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 Statistics indicated that AMH presented 78 different variants in 93 families, and 80 different alleles of AMHR2 were discovered in 94 families. In our Chinese patients, mutational analyses revealed possible causative variants in all patients.…”

“…ciplinary team must intervene to confirm the diagnosis immediately at birth. DSD can also appear during childhood, associated with other syndromic characteristics; during adolescence due to virilization, absence of puberty, or primary amenorrhea; and during adulthood, associated with infertility, gonadal tumors, and other complications (6,9,23). Regardless of the specific needs of each of those groups, a timely multidisciplinary team intervention is always recommended.The results presented herein show us the importance of cytogenetic analyses in the diagnosis of DSD.…”
