Sex Dev. 2021;15(4):244-252. PMID: 34293745, doi: 10.1159/000515924.Brief Summary: This genetic study provides data of a large cohort of 140 patients with DSD who were screened for DHX37 variants.DHX37 emerges as a frequent cause of nonsyndromic 46,XY gonadal dysgenesis, and 46,XY testicular regression syndrome. Since the first description of the gene (1), <...
