Sudden infant death with dysgenesis of the testes syndrome (SIDDT) is a rare condition that is fatal in the first year of life; its major features include abnormalities of the reproductive system in males, feeding difficulties, and breathing problems.
Infants with SIDDT who are genetically male, with one X chromosome and one Y chromosome in each cell, have underdeveloped or abnormal testes. They may also have external genitalia that appear female or that do not look clearly male or clearly female (ambiguous genitalia). In affected infants who are genetically female, with two X chromosomes in each cell, development of the internal and external reproductive organs is normal.
SIDDT is associated with abnormal development of the brain, particularly the brainstem, which is the part of the brain that is connected to the spinal cord. The brainstem regulates many basic body functions, including heart rate, breathing, eating, and sleeping. It also relays information about movement and the senses between the brain and the rest of the body. Many features of SIDDT appear to be related to brainstem malfunction, including a slow or uneven heart rate, abnormal breathing patterns, difficulty controlling body temperature, unusual tongue and eye movements, an exaggerated startle reflex to sudden lights or loud noises, and feeding difficulties. Affected infants also have an unusual cry that has been described as similar to the bleating of a goat, which is probably a result of abnormal nerve connections between the brain and the voicebox (larynx).
The brainstem abnormalities lead to death in the first year of life, when affected infants suddenly stop breathing or their heart stops beating (cardiorespiratory arrest).
MalaCards based summary : Sudden Infant Death with Dysgenesis of the Testes Syndrome, also known as siddt, is related to sudden infant death syndrome, and has symptoms including stridor An important gene associated with Sudden Infant Death with Dysgenesis of the Testes Syndrome is TSPYL1 (TSPY Like 1). Affiliated tissues include testes, brain and eye, and related phenotypes are gastroesophageal reflux and cryptorchidism NIH Rare Diseases : 52 The following summary is from Orphanet , a European reference portal for information on rare diseases and orphan drugs. Orpha Number: 168593 Definition Sudden infant death with dysgenesis of the testes (SIDDT) syndrome is a lethal condition in infants with dysgenesis of testes. Epidemiology SIDDT syndrome has been described in 21 infants from nine separate sibships among the Old Order Amish. Clinical description Infants with SIDDT syndrome appear normal at birth except that they are often recognized by the unusual staccato sound of their cry. Within the first months of life, they develop signs of viscera-autonomic nerve dysfunction including bradycardia, hypothermia, severe gastroesophageal reflux, laryngospasm, bronchospasm, and abnormal cardiorespiratory patterns during sleep. XY males have testicular dysgenesis and ambiguous genitalia. Female sexual development is normal. Etiology SIDDT syndrome is caused by homozygous mutation in the testis-specific protein Y-like-1 gene , TSPYL1 on chromosome 6 (6q22.1-q22.31). Genetic counseling The syndrome follows an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance. Prognosis Prognosis is very poor: infants die before 12 months of age of sudden cardiorespiratory arrest.

KEGG : 36 Sudden infant death with dysgenesis of the testes syndrome (SIDDT) is an autosomal recessive syndrome that was first identified in an Old Order Amish community. Infants with SIDDT appear normal at birth, develop signs of visceral and autonomic dysfunction early in life, and die before 12 months of age of abrupt cardiorespiratory arrest. SIDDT was identified to be caused by loss of function mutations in the TSPYL1 gene. UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot : 73 Sudden infant death with dysgenesis of the testes syndrome: Autosomal recessive disorder. Affected infants appear normal at birth, develop signs of visceroautonomic dysfunction early in life, and die before 12 months of age of abrupt cardiorespiratory arrest. Features included bradycardia, hypothermia, severe gastroesophageal reflux, laryngospasm, bronchospasm, and abnormal cardiorespiratory patterns during sleep. Genotypic males with SIDDT had fetal testicular dysgenesis and ambiguous genitalia, with findings such as intraabdominal testes, dysplastic testes, deficient fetal testosterone production, fusion and rugation of the gonadal sac, and partial development of the penile shaft. Female sexual development was normal. Affected infants had an unusual staccato cry, similar to the cry of a goat.
