Purpose: Disorders of sex development (DSD) have been linked with gene defects that lead to gonadal dysgenesis. Herein, we aimed at identifying the genetic cause of gonadal dysgenesis in a patient with primary amenorrhoea and 46,XY karyotype from a consanguineous family.Methods and Results: Whole exome sequencing (WES) was performed and revealed in homozygosity the rare and only once reported p.Arg164Pro missense mutatio...

Abstract: Objective: Congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (CHH) is a rare genetic disease caused by GnRH deficiency and characterized by absent or incomplete puberty with infertility. The identification of the genetic cause in this group of patients through the use of next generation sequencing (NGS) can assist to the clinical management.Methods: Seven GnRH deficient nonrelated Cypriot probands were ...
