| Popis: |
Persistent Mullerian Duct Syndrome (PMDS), a rare form of male pseudohermaphroditism. It is characterized by the persistence of Mullerian duct structures (uterus, fallopian tubes and upper two-thirds of vagina) in otherwise normally virilized males (Karyotype 46XY). The exact cause of PMDS is not known, however it is thought to result from the defect of the synthesis or release of Mullerian inhibiting factor (MIF) or from a MIF receptor defect. Herein we report a case of PMDS with gynaecomastia and hypospadias in a post orchidopexy patient. |
