Hidden X Chromosomal Mosaicism in a 46,XX Male

Abstract: We report on a 37-year-old XX male with complex hidden X chromosomal mosaicism. The patient had fully mature male genitalia with hypoplastic testes descended in the scrotum and no sign of undervirilization. Hormonal examination demonstrated hypergonadotropic hypogonadism, semen analysis showed severe oligoasthenoteratozoospermia. In situ hybridization revealed the presence of 3 SRY-positive cell lines bearing 1, 2 or 3 X chromosomes. Skewed inactivation of the paternal SRY-bearing X chromosome was detected by … Show more

“…Case 8 demonstrated low level of X‐chromosomal mosaicism, 46,X,der(X)/47,X,der(X),der(X)/45,X, and the clinical picture was not distinct from the diploid cases. X‐chromosomal mosaicism in SRY‐positive 46,XX TDSD has been reported in the literature previously, and mitotic nondisjunction has been suggested to be responsible for mosaicism (Chernykh et al., 2009; Macia Bobes, Alonso Troncoso, Botas Cervero, Castano Fernandez, & Fau Cubero, 2002). Patients with mosaicism have a clinical variability ranging from the true hermaphrodites to complete masculinisation based on the proportion of cell lines (Chernykh et al., 2009).…”

Patients with mosaicism have a clinical variability ranging from the true hermaphrodites to complete masculinisation based on the proportion of cell lines (Chernykh et al., 2009). In our patient, the 46,XX cell line was predominant, and very low level of 45,X and 47,X,der(X),der(X) mosaicism was detected and having complete masculinisation is consistent with the previous studies.…”

“…Cases of SRY-Positive 46,XX Testicular DSD 45 that can lead to X chromosomal mosaicism [Chernykh et al 2009]. Abnormal mitotic segregation would be related with advanced age and cause X chromosomal mosaicism [Ogata et al 2001] as it was in patient I.…”

“…Screening of study titles and abstracts revealed 47 articles potentially eligible for inclusion; a further assessment based on the full-text led to the exclusion of 10 papers (Figure 1). The 37 selected studies described 64 adult patients with XX male syndrome [5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41].…”
