We report a case of a 14-year-old girl with primary amenorrhea and phenotypic as well as hormonal features of complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (CAIS), who tested positive for a novel missense androgen receptor gene mutation resulting in serine-to-isoleucine change at position 703 in exon 4 in the ligand-binding domain. The interesting features of this case include a persistence of Müllerian derivatives, Sertoli cell adenoma, Tanner III pubic hair, and a normal bone mineral density. These features are not typically described in CAIS. This novel mutation associated with a unique clinical presentation serves to significantly enrich the literature on this rare and fascinating disorder of androgen insensitivity syndrome.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
