Partial androgen receptor deficiency and mixed gonadal dysgenesis in Drash syndrome

Turleau C, Niaudet P, Sultan C, Rault G, Mahfoud A, Nihoul-Fekete C, Iris L, de Grouchy J.

Drash syndrome associates a nephropathy characterized by a diffuse mesangial sclerosis of early onset, Wilms tumor, and male pseudohermaphroditism (MPH). A patient with Drash syndrome is reported with the following: karyotype 46,XY, external genitalia near normal female, mixed gonadal dysgenesis, severe androgen receptor deficiency demonstrated for the first time in this syndrome. The possibility of a common genetic denominator with the del 11p13 WAGR complex is suggested. MPH/nephroblastoma association is common. Androgen receptor deficiency has been observed in one case of each syndrome, respectively.
