Mixed gonadal dysgenesis
English
Partial gonadal dysgenesis
English
People with mixed gonadal dysgenesis are born with a mosaic (usually 45X/46XY) chromosome pattern and may develop some gonadal streak tissue and testicular tissue. They may be born with a vulva or penis, or with visible genital variations. They usually have a partially or completely developed uterus, and they may have combinations of internal reproductive structures such as a fallopian tube and a vas deferens on opposite sides of the body. In adolescence, people with mixed gonadal dysgenesis may develop some secondary sex characteristics associated with a typical testosterone puberty, depending on the amount of hormone-producing testicular tissue they have.
