The syndrome of Mixed Gonadal Dysgenesis is characterized by a unilateral testis, usually intra- abdominal a streak gonad on contralateral side, persistent Mullerian structures and ambiguous genitalia. These patients are chromatin negative and exhibit XO/XY mosaicism, probably resulting from a cytogenetic error very early in embryogenesis. The testis and the streak gonad should be removed because of the potential devlopement of a gonadoblastoma and the virilization...
