45,X/46,X,psu dic(Y) gonadal dysgenesis: influence of the two cell lines on the clinical phenotype, including gonadal histology.

A child born with ambiguous genitalia (Prader III) was found to have a 45,X[92.2%]/46,X,psu dic(Y)(p12)[7.8%] karyotype in peripheral blood lymphocytes.

Complete androgen insensitivity syndrome: factors influencing gonadal histology including germ cell pathology.

Patients with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome are at an increased risk for the development of gonadal germ cell cancer. Residual androgen receptor (AR) activity and abnormal gonadal location may influence the survival of atypical germ cells and the development of other histopathological features. To assess this, we evaluated 37 gonads from 19 patients with complete androgen insensitivity (ranging in age from 3 months to 18 years).
