Özet

We report a patient with a de novo telomeric association between chromosomes 19 and Y in conjunction with mixed gonadal dysgenesis. The patient was first admitted to the clinic because of abnormal external genitalia. Laparoscopic evaluation revealed (1) a rudimentary uterus, one fallopian tube, and a small gonad resembling an ovary on the right side, and (2) an immature fallopian tube, a vas deferens, and a gonad resembling a testis on the left side. Conventional cytogenetic analysis performed on cultivated peripheral blood cells, and tissue obtained from the phallus and a gonadal structure which resembled a testis revealed two different cell lines with the 46,X,tas (Y;19)(p11.3;q13.4) and 45,X karyotype. Y chromosome microdeletion analysis showed that the patient did not have any genomic deletions in the AZFa, b, c, or SRY regions on the long arm of the Y chromosome. This is the first report of a patient with mixed gonadal dysgenesis that is accompanied by a telomeric association between chromosomes 19 and Y with 45,X mosaicism.
