Pubertal growth spurt in patients with bilateral anorchia after testosterone replacement therapy

Archives de Pédiatrie, 2019
Anorchia, the absence of testes in 46,XY boys, is a very rare condition. It has been suggested that the testicular tissue disappears during pregnancy, as a result of a vascular accident associated with torsion or a genetic cause. Because pubertal growth spurt is directly influenced by androgen exposure, we decided to evaluate the pubertal height gain ...
