A heterozygous intragenic duplication within the repeated area (CTGCAGCTG)×2 of the NR5A1 gene was found in a 15-year-old 46,XY DSD (disorders/differences of sex development) patient with micropenis and severe proximal hypospadias. This heterozygous duplication has already been described twice in boys with a similar phenotype, whereas a deletion of 3 amino acids at the same position in the protein SF-1 has been...
