Clinical and molecular evidence for the role of androgens and WT1 in testis descent.

Molecular and cellular endocrinology - 20 Dec 2001

Lim H N, Hughes I A, Hawkins J R

Abstract excerpt

Testicular maldescent is a common congenital disorder associated with testicular cancer and infertility. In this study, testis position was assessed in subjects with genital abnormalities due to AR mutations, Denys-Drash and WAGR syndromes or an unknown aetiology. Subjects with completely female genitalia and an AR mutation or an unknown aetiology had a greater proportion of maldescended testes (intra-abdominal...
