Background: Studies on the follow-up of 46,XY partial gonadal dysgenesis (PGD) patients till adulthood are scarce and it is important to provide information to parents on the prognosis of gonadal dysgenesis.Objective and hypotheses: To analyze the long term outcomes of 46XY PGD patients in both social sexes regarding testosterone production, social sex adaption and genotype.Method: Retrospective longitudinal study conducted at Hosp...

Background: Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome is a common form of 46,XY DSD. In the literature, 85–90% of patients with complete form of Androgen Insensitivity (CAIS) and 30% of patients with parcial form (PAIS) have the AR gene mutation identified, In most cases are found a missense mutation with aminoacid change. Mutations without aminoacid changes (silent mutations) are rarely related to human diseases and have never been identified in patients with CAIS.<p class="ab...

Background: Outcomes related to sexual life are poorly explored in 46,XY DSD patients and most studies focus only in 46,XX DSD (CAH). In 46,XY DSD the observations of sexual outcomes are scares, but they overall indicate that the SexQoL is impaired, particularly regarding sexual function and sexual satisfaction.Objective and hypotheses: To evaluate sexual outcomes in a cohort of patients with 46,XY in adulthood and compare these observations with the res...

Background: Androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS) is a genetic disease X-linked, caused by functional abnormalities of the androgen receptor (AR). Mutations in the AR are associated with broad phenotypic spectrum from partial insensibility (PAIS) to complete insensitivity (CAIS).Objective and hypotheses: To characterize the mutations (MUT) identified in the AR in 38 Brazilian families with AIS. The MUT were analyzed considering their type, location in th...
