Spectrum of Genital and Extragenital Anomalies in Malformation Syndromes Associated With 46, XY Disorders of Sex Development: A Single Center Experience.
Indian Pediatrics 2024 April 6
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed at integrating the clinical and phenotypic characteristics, hormonal profile and genetic diagnosis of children with malformation syndromes associated with XY disorders of sex development (DSD) in a single-center in Egypt.
METHODS: This retrospective study included patients with syndromic XY DSD recruited from the Pediatric Endocrinology and Surgery units at Alexandria University Children's hospital (AUCH), Alexandria, Egypt, during the period between 2018 and 2023. All patients included in the study underwent a detailed clinical and laboratory evaluation, ultrasonography (and laparoscopy if needed); and decision making was done accordingly.
RESULTS: The study included 30 children with syndromic XY DSD; most of these children were diagnosed at birth. The most common extragenital malformations included skeletal anomalies (70%), facial dysmorphism (46.7%), cerebral malformations and congenital heart disease (23.3%). Ventricular septal defect was the most common congenital heart disease.
CONCLUSIONS: Integration between clinical, laboratory and genetic data is the cornerstone in the management of XY DSD patients for appropriate decision making of surgical intervention and sex assignment, in addition to screening for other associated features of each mutation.
