The risk of malignant transformation of germ cells, leading to germ cell cancer (GCC) in patients with disorders of sex development, is highly heterogeneous and dependent on a number of parameters, of which the presence of Y-chromosomal material is essential. This chapter describes the networks, both protein-coding and regulatory processes, related to normal gonadal development and GCC, with focus on recent advances of molecular markers for early diagnosis.
