AbstractChromosomal translocations constitute one of the most important, yet uncommon, causes of primary amenorrhea and gonadal dysgenesis.

متن کاملPresumptive Y/D translocation in mixed gonadal dysgenesis.
One of the important findings of human cytogenetics has been the role of the Y chromosome in testicular differentiation of the bipotential embryonic gonad, but a puzzle has been posed by reports of individuals with a testis but with no apparent Y chromosome. This paper describes a patient with mixed gonadal dysgenesis (testis and streak), interpreted as having a Y/D translocation in some cells,...
