Overview

Case reports compatible with CAIS date back to the 19th century, when hermaphroditism was the technical term for intersex conditions.

Historical Perspective

  • In 1953 the first medical report on AIS was published by J. M. Morris, an american gynecologist. [1] [2] [3]
  • In 1989, the exact location of the human Androgen receptor (AR) gene on Xq11-12 locus was determined and the proof that it is caused by mutations in this gene. [4] [5] [6]
  • In the 1990s, patient advocacy groups also supported abandoning the term "testicular feminization" and it is now considered inaccurate, stigmatising and archaic.

Reifenstein syndrome

One might fairly call Reifenstein syndrome "even more partial" AIS, but when E.C. Reifenstein described the features of a new syndrome of male "familial hypogonadism" in 1947, it was not known that this condition was due to an abnormal androgen receptor and related to the female conditions of CAIS or PAIS. Additional familial intersex and hypogonadal conditions described by Lubs, Gilbert, Dreyfus, Rosewater, Walker, and others are now considered variants of the Reifenstein syndrome form of AIS. [7]
