Measurements of Serum Müllerian Inhibiting Substance in the Evaluation of Children with Nonpalpable Gonads

Abstract

Measurements of serum mullerian inhibiting substance can be used to determine testicular status in prepubertal children with nonpalpable gonads, thus differentiating anorchia from undescended testes in boys with bilateral cryptorchidism and serving as a measure of testicular integrity in children with intersexual anomalies.
