True Hermaphrodite: A Case Report
True hermaphrodite is one of the rarest variety of disorders of sexual differentiation (DSD) and represents only 5% cases of all. A 3-year-old child presented with left sided undescended testis and penoscrotal hypospadias. Chordee correction was performed 18 months back, elsewhere. At laparotomy Mullerian structures were present on left side. On right side testis was normally descended into the...
متن کاملA Case of True Hermaphrodite Presenting as Cyclical Hematuria
True hermaphrodite (also known as ovotesticular disorder of sexual development or ovotesticular-DSD), is one of the rare varieties of disorder of sexual development. It is characterized by histologically confirmed both ovarian and testicular tissue in one individual. Here we report the case of a16-year-old phenotypic male with 46, XX genotype(true hermaphrodite) presenting with cyclical hematur...
متن کاملUnilateral true hermaphrodite with 46,XX/46,XY dispermic chimerism.
A 13 year old female presented with ambiguous external genitalia, right inguinal ovotestis, left ovary, apparently normal Mullerian system, and absent Wolffian system.

متن کاملHermaphrodite with Mosaic
SIR,-In a recent review de Grouchy 1 compiles the following karyotypes described in true hermaphroditism: 46 XX, 46 XY, 46 XX/46 XY, 45 XO/46 XY, 46 XX/47 XXY, 46 XX/47 XXX, 46 XX/46 XY/45 XO, 46 XX/47 XXY/ 49 XXYYY, and 45 XO/46 X isoY/47 XY isoY. We have studied the chromosomes of a true hermaphrodite with a new mosaicism, 46 XX/46 XY/47 XXY, which might throw some light on the possible multi...
متن کاملHermaphrodite cell-fate specification.
There are two sexes in C. elegans, hermaphrodite and male. While there are many sex-specific differences between males and hermaphrodites that affect most tissues, the basic body plan and many of its structures are identical. However, most structures required for mating or reproduction are sexually dimorphic and are generated by sex-specific cell lineages. Thus to understand cell fate specifica...
