Abstract
The complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, formerly called testicular feminization syndrome, is a rare genetic disease in which an individual with a male XY karyotype expresses a female phenotype. They present apparently normal female external genitalia, although they have a blind vagina or short vagina with variable length, and they do not have uterus and fallopian tubes.
