Abstract excerpt
Backgrounds: Pediatric-onset primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) presents distinct clinical challenges, including delayed puberty or growth retardation. Previously, we reported a Chinese family with POI harboring compound heterozygous variants (p.C242R and p.S445*) in MCM8 gene, a critical factor for DNA repair and gonadal homeostasis. Objective: This study describes clinical findings of pediatric-onset POI...
