Descriptor disgenesia gonadal
Scope note: Diversos síndromes con desarrollos gonadales defectuosos tales como gónadas en estría y testículos disgenésicos. El espectro de anomalías gonadales y sexuales se refleja en su variada constitución de los cromosomas sexuales (CROMOSOMAS SEXUALES) como se muestra por los cariotipos de la monosomía 45,X (SÍNDROME DE TURNER), 46,XX (DISGENESIA GONADAL 46XX), 46,XY (DISGENESIA GONADAL 46XY) y MOSAICISMO del cromosoma sexual (DISGENESIA GONADAL MIXTA). Sus fenotipos van desde el femenino hasta el de varón, pasndo por el ambiguo. Este concepto incluye la agenesia gonadal.

Scope note: A number of syndromes with defective gonadal developments such as streak GONADS and dysgenetic testes or ovaries. The spectrum of gonadal and sexual abnormalities is reflected in their varied sex chromosome (SEX CHROMOSOMES) constitution as shown by the karyotypes of 45,X monosomy (TURNER SYNDROME); 46,XX (GONADAL DYSGENESIS, 46XX); 46,XY (GONADAL DYSGENESIS, 46,XY); and sex chromosome MOSAICISM; (GONADAL DYSGENESIS, MIXED). Their phenotypes range from female, through ambiguous, to male. This concept includes gonadal agenesis.
