7772 A Study on Role of Anti-Mullerian Hormone and Inhibin B in 46,XY Disorders Of Sexual Development

Abstract Disclosure: N. Kudugunti: None. S. Bangaru: None. R.K. Sahay: None. Background: In pre-pubertal period, a major part of the testicular tissue is constituted by Sertoli cells for which AMH, Inhibin B are specific biomarkersHigh AMH, Inhibin B levels in the prepubertal period is via FSH stimulation, which is mistakenly considered to be silent due to its reduced activity Aim & Objectives: To assess AMH and Inhibin B measurements in the diagnostic workup of prepubertal children with different subtypes of 46,XY DSD and comparing with normal controls To assess Sertoli cell function with AMH and Inhibin B and to assess correlation between testosterone elevation after hCG stimulation, basal AMH and Inhibin B Patients and methods: Pilot study-Single centered, Cross-sectional Observational study. After ethical committee approval, 40 children with 46,XY DSD & 40 healthy age matched, boys as controls recruited after taking assent. All children with DSD underwent karyotyping, assessment of hCG stimulated testosterone, DHT and androstenedione. Basal AMH and inhibin B were measured in both cases and controls. Data were analysed using IBM SPSS version 25. Results: The mean age at presentation was 4.09 years.The diagnosis was made clinically and biochemically, genetic analysis done in few patients. Out of 40 cases, 26 had normal hCG stimulated testosterone of >100 ng/dl (17 cases were 5 alpha reductase type 2 deficiency [5αR2D], 9 cases were PAIS) & 14 had low hCG stimulated testosterone of <100 ng/dl (8 cases were 17βHSD3 deficiency, 4 cases were Partial gonadal dysgenesis [PGD], 2 cases were Vanishing testis syndrome). In the low testosterone group, mean AMH in 17βHSD3 deficiency-279.95 ng/ml, in PGD-31.16 ng/ml which is statistically significant in differentiating these disorders(p-0.002)& mean Inhibin B in 17βHSD3 deficiency-186.41 pg/ml, in PGD-35.95 pg/ml which is statistically significant in differentiating these disorders (p-0.007). In vanishing testis syndrome, AMH & Inhibin B were helpful in confirming the absent functioning testicular tissue Whereas in normal testosterone group, mean AMH in PAIS-235.65 ng/ml, in 5αR2D-289.08 ng/ml difference is not statistically significant(p-0.36)& mean Inhibin B in PAIS-204.50 pg/ml, in 5αR2D-190.91 pg/ml difference is not statistically significant(p-0.72) There was significant correlation between basal AMH and hCG stimulated testosterone (r=0.434; p-0.002), Inhibin B and hCG stimulated testosterone(r=0.438; p-0.001), AMH and Inhibin B(r=0.770; p<0.001). Conclusion: AMH and Inhibin B are valuable in differentiating PGD, 17βHSD3 deficiency in low hCG stimulated testosterone patients, but not helpful in differentiating PAIS, 5αR2D in normal hCG stimulated testosterone patients. Especially in PGD they may have a role with respect to fertility prospects and malignancy risk assessment. Presentation: 6/3/2024
