Abstract

A case of true hermaphroditism, in a 4-year-old, legally female, is reported. The external genitalia showed clitorism and labial agglutinate, and her karyotype from peripheral lymphocytoculture was 46,XX. She received gonadectomy at both sides, clitorectomy and plasty of vaginal orifice. Histopathological examination showed that both gonads were ovotestis.
