Re: auto-salpingo-oophorectomy? From: T-H Bui, Clinical Genetics, Karolinska Hospital (bui@gen.ks.se) Mon Oct 2 10:58:54 1995 Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Geffrey Klein, MD: "Clinicopathologic Conference" Previous message: Guttenberg Primo: "Re: acardiac twin" Dr Pastorek and others have discussed patients with a missing adnexa with possibly a genetic component involving other urogenital structures. They wondered whether this is a recognised entity. Hereditary urogenital adysplasia also called hereditary renal adysplasia was so called, for the first time I think by Buchta et al in 1973, combining the term renal hypoplasia or aplasia. Although the condition has been described in both sexes, it is more severe in the male and often associated with other urogenital anomalies in the female including vaginal atresia (von Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster syndrome) and lack of a fallopian tube. The evidence at this time is that it is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait with variable expression. Further refs can be obtained through OMIM (online Mendelian Inheritance in Man) or the MIM Book of Victor McKusick (MIM #191830) that every clinical/medical geneticist should have available. Best wishes.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
