Various mutations of the AR gene and expanded CAG repeats at exon 1 of that gene have
been reported in patients with hypospadias or genital ambiguity. However, the role of the AR …

We report an 11‐year‐old boy with undermasculinized genitalia and an abnormally
expanded CAG repeat length at exon 1 of the androgen receptor (AR) gene. He had …

We report on mutation screening and CAG repeat length analysis of the androgen receptor
(AR) gene in 21 patients with hypospadias. The urethral meatus was located at the …

Micropenis is defined as a stretched penile length of less than 2–2.5 SD for age. Aetiologies
include hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, testicular dysgenesis, defects in testosterone …

Hypospadias is a common urological abnormality and may occur in simple (glandular or
penile) or severe forms (perineal). Perineal hypospadias often occurs in association with …

Partial androgen insensitivity syndrome (PAIS) is the milder variant of androgen receptor
(AR) defects. The subtle effects of AR mutations present in a patient with micropenis, peno …

Hypospadias is the displacement of the urethral meatus from the tip of the glans to the
ventral side of the phallus. During fetal development, SRY, SOX9, WT1, SRD5A2 and AR …

Although sufficient androgen receptor (AR) function is crucial for normal male sexual
differentiation, single-point mutations in the AR gene are infrequent in the two most common …

Context: Hypospadias is a malformation of the penis due to an incomplete development of
the male urethra, the exact etiology of which in the majority of cases remains unknown …

PURPOSE: We examined the significance of the CAG repeat polymorphism in the
pathogenesis of cryptorchidism. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Genomic deoxyribonucleic …
