The presence of pubic hair is exceptional in healthy infants of both sexes. In most of the cases described in the literature, the process was self-limited and no etiology was found. Nevertheless, in some patients, this finding has been associated with other manifestations of hyperandrogenism related to potentially serious diseases such as congenital adrenal hyperplasia or virilizing tumors. In the present article, we describe seven infants followed-up in the Pediatric Endocrine Clinic because of scrotal hair. In all patients, the process was self-limited and resolved spontaneously and no hormonal or developmental alterations were observed. Key words: Scrotal hair, infants, virilization.
在健康的男女婴儿中,出现阴毛的情况很罕见。在文献中描述的大多数病例中,该过程是自限性的,未发现病因。然而,在一些患者中,这一发现与其他高雄激素血症表现相关,这些表现可能与先天性肾上腺增生或雄激素分泌性肿瘤等潜在严重疾病有关。在本文中,我们描述了七名因阴囊毛发问题在儿科内分泌诊所接受随访的婴儿。所有患者的病情都是自限性的,并且自行缓解,未观察到激素或发育方面的改变。关键词:阴囊毛发、婴儿、男性化。
