OT-DSD a rare cause ambiguity, most common karyotype 46,XX; mosaics chimeras are found only 10%–20%. Aim: To report case patient with constitution. Case report: A 2-month-old child male assignment was referred to our clinic for investigation ambiguity. He...

BACKGROUND: Because normal male sexual differentiation is more complex than female differentiation, there are cases of disorders sex development (DSDs) with 46,XY karyotype that have unclear etiology. However, Leydig and Sertoli cell markers rarely used in distinguishing such individuals. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the function cells individuals genital ambiguity, karyotype, palpable gonads testosterone secretion. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING: Case-control study 77 patients, including eight partial...
