Gonadal Dysgenesis (Part 3)

Gonadal dysgenesis is a progressive congenital destructive phenomenon of the germ cells in the embryonic life that produces a fibrotic band depleted of germ cells (streak gonads) and includes pure XX gonadal dysgenesis (bilateral streak ovaries), pure XY gonadal dysgenesis or Swyer syndrome (bilateral dysgenetic testes), and mixed gonadal dysgenesis (an streak ovary and an ipislateral dysgenetic testis). In this article, we describe the aforementioned in detail and share our experience in this regard in our center with the readers.
