Description

There have been many cases of adrenogenital syndrome reported in Japan recently, however a report of surgical correction to ambiguous external genitalia was scarecely found. We reported a case of reduction clitoroplasty on a 2-year-old girl with this syndrome considered to be type II in Prader's classification; differentiation of the urethral orifice and the vaginal orifice could be identified clearly. We discussed the indication of surgical correction to ambiguous external genitalia in this syndrome in a view of sexual function, and psychological and cosmetic problems.
