Somatosexual defects

Hermafroditismus

verus

Somatosexual defects - overview1. Conditions with structural or numeric abnormalities

of sex chromosomes X and Y.

2. Defects of reproductive organs differentiation caused by congenital enzymatic malfunctions at testosterone biosynthesis and complete or incomplete nonsensitivity of target organs for androgens.

3. Conditions with normal karyotype and various defect of reproductive organs of unknown origin.

4. Defects of reproductive organs development connected with other malformations as a part of malformations units.

Numeric defects

Structural defects

Cell division

Gonads development

Structural aberrations of Y chromosome

- deletions of Y chromosome

- inversion of Y chromosome

- ring Y chromosome

Cytogenetic of Y chromosome

A. Apparent defects of external genital development

1. Female pseudohermafrodismuskaryotype 46, XX, present ovaries, virilisation of external genital organs

a) congenital adrenal hyperplasia

b) increased level of androgens or progesterone at mother in pregnancy, leading to virilisation of external genital organs at fetus

c) localised malformations

Female hypogonadismus1. Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism
