## Abstract ## Introduction Disorders of sexual differentiation (DSD) are conditions of abnormal chromosomal development leading to atypical gonadal and anatomic sexual characteristics. We present the case of two siblings with 46, XX testicular DSD due to a mutation in the nuclear receptor subfamily 5 group A member 1 gene (NR5A1). While there is extensive literature about pathogenic variants of this gene, this is the first variant that has been shown to cause DSD in XX individuals, rather than XY. ## Case presentation This is the case of a sibling pair with male phenotype and history of hypospadias and hypogonadism in the setting of 46, XX karyotype. Sibling A presented with hypospadias at birth and hypergonadotropic hypogonadism in childhood, initially managed with testosterone. Testicular biopsy revealed bilateral germ cell aplasia with degeneration of seminiferous tubules. Sibling B presented at age 8 with precocious puberty. He had a history of hypospadias and cryptorchidism at birth. Gonadotropins and testosterone levels were prepubertal. Testicular biopsy showed only Sertoli cells. Their adrenal gland and thyroid function was normal, their bone age was advanced. FISH was neg
