Challenges in the diagnosis and management of disorders of sex development

Abstract: Disorders of sex development (DSD) represent a spectrum of uncommon but very complex disorders with medical, psychosexual, and family implications for those affected by them. The diagnosis and management of these disorders requires a coordinated team of multiple specialists. Following an international conference in Chicago in 2005, a consensus statement was created and presented, which has resulted in a new paradigm in the nomenclature, classification, and management of DSDs. Since that time, many improvements… Show more

“…Studies indicate a global DSD frequency of 1:4500–5500 using the atypical genitalia criteria, but this can increase to 1:200–300 when the description of cases includes congenital anomalies of the genitals, such as cryptorchidism or hypospadias [ 6 ]. The estimated incidence of chromosomal DSDs is 1:2,500 live infant girls for patients with Turner syndrome and 1:500 live boy births for patients with Klinefelter syndrome [ 2 , 14 ]. Regarding patients with DSD and karyotype 46, XY, the overall incidence is 1:20,000 births; for patients with ovotesticular DSD, a frequency of 1:100,000 has been estimated [ 15 , 16 ].…”
