Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We report the case of a newborn boy who presented with micropenis and bilateral cryptorchidism at birth. The determination of AMH level strongly suggested a diagnosis of bilateral anorchia at 3 days of age whereas FSH and LH levels at the same time were not informative. The rapidity and reliability of results can reduce parental anxiety and avoid more invasive explorations.
