Scientists hunt for hidden genes behind common birth defect
NCT ID NCT02495090
Summary
This study aimed to discover new genes that cause hypospadias, a condition where the opening of the urethra is not at the tip of the penis. Researchers analyzed the DNA of 60 patients from families with multiple cases of hypospadias. The goal was to improve understanding of the condition's genetic origins, not to provide treatment.
