What is already known on this topic? Both loss and gain of function mutations of the LHCGR gene can cause human diseases. Inactive LHCGR variant causes type 1 Leydig cell hypoplasia (LCH), which is characterized by the complete absence of male differentiation. To date, 77 variants have been reported, u n c o r r e c t e d p r o o f including 49 missenses, 11 nonsenses, 5 gross deletions, 4 small insertions, 4 small deletions, 3 splicing variants, and 1 gross insertion. What this study adds? In this study, we identified two novel heterozygous variants in the LHCGR gene (c.349G>A, p.Gly117Arg and c.878C>A, p.Ser293*) causing type 1 LCH in a 2-year-9-month old patient presenting with female external genitalia and bilateral testis tissues in the inguinal region.
