Ovotesticular disorder of sexual development due to 47,XYY/46,XY/45,X mixed gonadal dysgenesis in a phenotypic male presenting as cyclical haematuria: clinical presentation and assessment of long-term outcomes.

Ovotesticular disorder of sexual differentiation (OTDSD) is a rare cause of disorder of sexual differentiation predominantly having 46,XX karyotype, female phenotype and ambiguous genitalia. We report a 15-year-old having male body habitus, axillary and pubic hair, well-developed penis and right-descended testis with history of penoscrotal hypospadias correction, presenting with three episodes of cyclical haematuria, who biochemically had normal serum testosterone (338 ng dl(-1) ) which increased following hCG stimulation (614 ng dl(-1) ), elevated estradiol (17.35 pg ml(-1) ) along with elevated luteinising hormone (11.3 mIU l(-1) ) and follicle-stimulating hormone (31 mIU l(-1) ). Ultrasonography followed by micturating cystourethrogram and cystoscopy confirmed the presence of prostate, uterus, cervix and vagina draining into the urogenital sinus continuing till the penile urethra and left intra-abdominal gonad. Patient underwent hysterectomy and left gonadectomy. Histopathologic study of resected gonad confirmed presence of ovotestis. Low estradiol (1.2 pg ml(-1) ) following gonadectomy confirmed the ovotestis origin of estradiol. Chromosomal analysis revealed complex karyotype predominant being 47,XYY (50%) followed by 46,XY (26%) and 45,X (24%). This is perhaps the first report of 47,XYY/46,XY/45,X causing OTDSD in a phenotypic male.
