Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the long-term effects of bilateral testicular regression (BTR) in individuals, focusing on growth and development outcomes, particularly highlighting suboptimal penile growth often related to genetic factors.
- - BTR, a rare condition with potential vascular and genetic origins, was analyzed in a cross-sectional study involving 35 participants recruited from eight pediatric endocrinology departments in Belgium over three years.
- - Key findings revealed common maternal complications during pregnancy and identified specific genetic variants in some participants, while a centralized review of gonadal tissue contributed to understanding the condition's clinical implications.

The second and third decisions concerned puberty blockers (PBs) for gender dysphoria.
