She exhibited facial signs such as midfacial hypoplasia, long face, proptosis, bulbous nose, mild prognathism and skeletal signs such as scoliosis, pectus carinatum, arachnodactyly and her sex development remained prepubertal. The patient was found to have hypergonadotropic hypogonadism, elevation of 17-OH progesterone and progesterone levels, low anti-mullerian hormone and inhibin B levels, and absence of gonads and a hypoplastic uterus on pelvic ultrasound. Whole exome sequencing revealed a novel hemizygous missense variant in the <jats:italic>SRY<\/jats:italic> gene (c.247C&gt;T, p.Pro83Ser), a homozygous missense variant in the <jats:italic>POR<\/jats:italic> gene (c.1355C&gt;T, p.Pro452Leu), and a novel heterozygous missense variant in the <jats:italic>DHX37<\/jats:italic> gene (c.1325A&gt;G, p.His442Arg).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec id=\"j_jpem-2024-0554_abs_003\">\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Our patient is the first case in which the coexistence of variants in the <jats:italic>SRY<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>DHX37<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>POR<\/jats:italic> genes was detected.
