This study investigated bone mineral density and body composition in adolescents with CAIS, showing a bone mass deficit in this population. Further research is needed to understand the extent of BMD abnormalities, the impact of early gonadectomy, and the optimal hormone replacement therapy regimen for bone accrual. Data on lean mass were reassuring.
Introduction Osteopenia and osteoporosis have been reported in adults with Complete Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (CAIS). Little is known about changes in bone mineral density (BMD) in adolescents with CAIS and whether it is affected by early gonadectomy. Body composition data have not been reported. Methods Single-center, retrospective study of CAIS adolescents who underwent dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) (Hologic, Horizon A). Body composition is presented as lean and fat mass indices (LMI, FMI). Z-scores for lumbar spine areal BMD (LBMD), total body less head (TBLH), bone mineral content (BMC), LMI, and FMI were calculated using female normative data. Results are expressed as median and min, max. Results Six females with genetically confirmed CAIS were identified-one with intact gonads and five with history of gonadectomy at 2-11 months. In the subject with intact gonads, LBMD-Z and TBLH BMC-Z were -1.56 and -1.26, respectively, at age 16 years. Among those with gonadectomy, LBMD-Z was -1.8 (-3.59 to 0.49) at age 15.6 years (12-16.8) and decreased in all three subjects who had longitudinal follow-up despite hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Adherence to HRT was intermittent. LMI-Z and FMI-Z were 0.1 (-1.39 to 0.7) and 1.0 (0.22 to 1.49), respectively. Conclusions These limited data indicate that adolescents with CAIS have bone mass deficit. Further studies are needed to understand the extent of BMD abnormalities and the effect of gonadectomy, especially early in childhood, and to establish the optimal HRT regimen for bone accrual. Data on lean mass are reassuring.
