Abstract Background A persistent Müllerian duct syndrome is a rare disorder of sexual differentiation characterized by the presence of the female reproductive system in a normal male. Case presentation Herein, we report a case of a 35-year-old father with persistent Müllerian duct syndrome and seminoma in the right undescended testis. The exploratory laparotomy was performed and revealed a mass in the right undescended testis and Müllerian duct structures. Conclusions For patients with cryptorchidism and inguinal hernia, the persistent Müllerian duct syndrome should be considered, and radiological evaluation of the genitourinary system is recommended for early diagnosis of persistent Müllerian duct syndrome. The persistent Müllerian duct syndrome is usually detected during a surgical operation, and it is considered a risk factor for developing testicular malignancies.

Duct Syndrome

Persistent Müllerian duct syndrome (PMDS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by the lack of regression of the derivatives of the Müllerian ducts in males. Boys with this condition usually present with unilateral or bilateral cryptorchidism, inguinal hernias, and reproductive disorders with normal male genitalia. Variants in the AMH or AMHR2 genes are responsible for the development of this syndrome. The genetic diagnosis and surgery in PMDS is challenging for both the endocrinologist and the urologist. Here, we describe the management of 2 siblings from 1 family who presented with bilateral cryptorchidism and hypospadias at birth. One child had testis located in the pelvis in the position of normal ovaries, while the other child had testis which were located in the inguinal canals (bilateral inguinal cryptorchidism). Exome sequencing revealed a compound heterozygous variant in the AMHR2 gene c.1388G>A, p.R463H and c.1412G>A p.R471H. To our knowledge, hypospadias has not been described in association with PMDS.

Duct Syndrome

Background: Persistent mullerian duct syndrome (PMDS) is a very rare form of internal male pseudohermaphroditism in individuals who are phenotypically males with 46 XY karyotypes harboring internal female reproductive organs which are Mullerian derivatives. It occurs as a defect in the genes coding for the Mullerian inhibiting substance (MIS) or the anti Mullerian hormone (AMH) receptor, ultimately leading to failure of regression of Mullerian ducts. Case Presentation: A 29-year-old male with PMDS presented with complaints of primary infertility. Diagnosis was made with the help of high index of suspicion, radiological imaging, and karyotyping. Our patient underwent exploratory laparotomy with hysterectomy and bilateral orchidopexy. Conclusion: The purpose of this study was increasing awareness regarding rare entities and surgeons should have high clinical suspicion of PMDS when patient with bilateral undescended testis comes for the evaluation of primary infertility.

Duct Syndrome

Disorder of sex determination is a condition associated with clinical and biochemical discrepancy between genetic, gonadal, and phenotypic sex of a child requiring detailed examination for final selection of sex. Indications for sex determination can arise both in infancy and during puberty. Several conditions pertaining to abnormal sex differentiation are manifested as normal male genitalia with Mullerian ducts derivatives.The study objective is to present clinical observations of children with persistent Mullerian duct syndrome.The study presents 2 clinical cases of children with disorders of sex determination. Both children were initially hospitalized at the surgical facility with cryptorchism diagnosis, Mullerian duct derivatives were found intraoperatively. During examination of the children (karyotyping, histological and immunohistochemical examination) in one case persistent Mullerian duct syndrome was diagnosed, in the other - chromosomal abnormality of sex formation (45,X/46,XY), mixed dysgenesis of the gonads.If Mullerian duct derivatives are found during diagnostic laparoscopy, resection biopsy of the ambiguous gonad and intraoperative single-step urethrocystoscopy for visualization of the seminal colliculus and catherization of the uterus for its identification from the abdominal side should be performed. Further examination includes karyotyping, hormonal examination, consultations with an endocrinologist and a geneticist, and genetic examination if necessary.
