Gonadal tumor and H-Y antigen in 46,XY pure gonadal dysgenesis

Abstract: Six cases of Swyer's syndrome (46,XY pure gonadal dysgenesis) are reported. Three patients, without gonadal tumor, had female H-Y antigen. Three patients, after gonadal tumor ablation, had intermediate H-Y antigen levels. Repeated blood samples were obtained from two siblings. H-Y antigen level in the first sibling, who presented with a gonadoblastoma and underwent a gonadectomy before the H-Y assays, was intermediate, and did not show any significant variation for 21 months. H-Y antigen level in the second si… Show more

“…Uehara et al ., and Amice showed that SRY may play a formation of gonadal tumors, especially dysgerminoma in Swyer syndrome [20,21]. However intra abdominal gonads should be removed as early in life as possible because of the known risk of tumor development [2].…”

“…1 As with other disorders of sex development, patients with Swyer syndrome are at risk of gonadoblastoma and malignant transformation of the dysplastic gonads. 2,3 The affected individuals are phenotypically female with normal external genitalia, and normal or hypoplastic Mullerian structures. They are almost always diagnosed when they present with primary amenorrhea and/or delayed puberty.…”

“…[25] In the 1880s, it was elucidated that the presence of macromolecules differentially in the normal and tumor tissue microenvironments. [26] Passive accumulation of drug-polymer conjugates or drug-containing liposomes within tumors may reflect high vascular permeability, which is the EPR effect. Studies have found that NPs with a size of 50-200 nm are more conducive to accumulation in tumor tissues to achieve passive targeting.…”
