Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The identification of causative mutations is important for treatment decisions and genetic counseling of patients with disorders of sex development (DSD). Here, we designed a new assay based on targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) to diagnose these genetically heterogeneous disorders. METHODS: All coding regions and flanking sequences of 219 genes implicated in DSD were designed to be included on...
