Gonadal Genetics and Germ Cell Tumor Risk in SRY-Negative 46,XX Testicular/Ovotesticular Disorders of Sex Development
The risk of GCTs in individuals with SRY-negative 46,XX testicular and ovotesticular DSD remains contentious. This study underscores the importance of comprehensive genetic and histological evaluations of gonadal tissues. Immunohistochemical findings suggest a relatively low GCT risk; however, long-term follow-up is essential for effective patient monitoring.
