No Paper N Age at presentation Presenting complaint Histology Genetics Comments
1 Huang et al. (6) 1 Infant Ambiguous genitalia Not performed SOX9 duplication
2 Kojima et al. (7) 5 Infant Ambiguous genitalia Bl Wolffian structures + Germinal aplasia, Sertoli and Leydig cells + No ovarian tissue/uterus/tubes SOX9 upregulation and DAX1 duplication Sporadic cases
3 Cox et al. (8) 3 Adult Infertile Leydig, Sertoli cells + atrophies seminiferous tubulesNo spermatogenesis ~178 kb duplication 600 kb upstream of SOX9 3 members (2 brothers and paternal uncle) from a family including a 46,XY father who carried the duplication
4 Vetro et al. (9) 2 Adult Infertile Germinal cell aplasia 96 kb triplication 500 kb upstream of SOX9 Brothers
5 Benko et al. (10) 4 Birth Ambiguous genitalia Case1: ovotestis and fallopian tubes Case 1: ~605–695 kb duplication 353 kb upstream of SOX9 All 3 were sporadic cases
Case 2: L ovary, fallopian tubes, rudimentary vagina and uterus Case 2: ~148 kb duplication −595 to −447 kb upstream of SOX9 Case 2: duplication paternally inherited. Duplication shared by two 46,XY brothers and not the sister
Case 3: ovotestis, primordial follicles, seminiferous tubules, Sertoli cells, fallopian tube + Case 3 and 4: ~762–780 kb duplication ~508 kb upstream of SOX9 Case 3 and 4: Brothers inherited duplication from 46,XY father and 46,XY grandfather
6 Xiao et al. (11) 1 Adult Infertile Not reported ~74 kb duplication ~510–584 kb upstream of SOX9
7 Lee et al. (12) 1 4 years Small testis duplication upstream of SOX9 SOX9 duplication
8 Kim et al. (13) 3 Case1: 25 years Azoospermia Not reported 143 kb duplication ~516–659 kb upstream of SOX9
Case 2: At birth Ambiguous genitalia L ovary, fallopian tubes+, R ovotestis primitive seminiferous tubules Case 2: ~444 kb duplication ~259–703 kb upstream of SOX9 Paternally inherited
Case 3: At birth Ambiguous genitalia R ovary, L dysgenic testis/ovotestis; vagina, rudimentary uterus + Case 3: 480 kb duplication 264–744 kb upstream of SOX9
9 Hyon et al. (14) 3 Adult Infertile Case 1 and 2: atrophic seminiferous tubules containing only Sertoli cells suggestive of testicular dysgenesis, Leydig cell hyperplasia; No spermatogenesis Case 1: 83 kb duplication ~694 kb upstream of SOX9Case 2: 83 kb duplication ~694 kb upstream of SOX9Case 3: 140 kb duplication ~694 kb upstream of SOX9 Case 1 and 2 were brothers
10 Vetro et al. (15) 2 Case 1: Adult Infertile N/A Duplication upstream of SOX9
Case 2: Infant Ambiguous genitalia Ovotestis, numerous oocytes, pre-pubertal seminiferous tubules Duplication upstream of SOX9
11 Our Case 1 Adult Mass in L testis Ovotestis, hemorrhagic corpus luteum and corpus albicans, primordial follicles, Sertoli cell nodules, seminiferous tubules with no spermatogenesis Duplication upstream of SOX9
