dc.description.abstractThe presence of Y chromosome fragments in patients with Turner's syndrome is known to increase the risk of gonadoblastoma and virilization. Y chromosome material is detected in up to 6% of patients with Turner's syndrome by karyotype. By DNA analysis, Y chromosome sequences have been reported in 0-60% of patients. The putative gonadoblastoma gene has been mapped to the pericentromeric region of the Y chromosome increasing the interest in studying these sequences.
dc.description.abstractAims: 1. To determine the frequency of occult Y chromosome sequences in patients with Turner's syndrome. 2. To analyze the clinical implications of Y sequences detected by karyotype and occult Y sequences.
dc.description.abstractStudy design: Cross-sectional study of 58 patients with Turner's syndrome (30 45,X; two with structural anomalies; 26 mosaic [two of whom were 45,X/46,XY]). SRY, TSPY and DYZ3 sequences were amplified by PCR using genomic DNA from peripheral blood.
dc.description.abstractResults: All three Y chromosome sequences were found in one out of 56 patients whose karyotype was not suggestive of having Y chromosome material and in one patient with 45,X/46,Xr(X) karyotype. The patients with the ring chromosome and 45,X/46,XY karyotype underwent surgery and were found to have a gonadoblastoma and dysgerminoma. The four patients with Y chromosome material had non-virilized female genitalia.
dc.description.abstractConclusions: Analysis by PCR was more sensitive in detecting Y chromosome sequences than conventional karyotype. The presence of Y material was not associated with virilization. We confirmed the association of Y fragments and gonadoblastoma at early age.
