16.4 Common Causes
The three most common diagnoses where a DSD is caused by a gonadal or hormonal variation are congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS) and mixed gonadal dysgenesis (MGD), with these diagnoses comprising 32–47% of all children with DSD caused by variations in hormone production or effects (Al-Agha et al. 2001; Joshi et al. 2006; Thyen et al. 2006; Parisi et al. 2007; Bhullar et al. 2011) (Table 16.3). The small fraction of these disorders in the broader diagnostic group is due to the difficulty of accurate diagnosis in many cases. Here, we briefly outline the specific management of the three most common diagnoses.Table 16.3Diagnostic breakdown of reported DSD cohorts
