PURPOSE

congenital adrenal hyperplasia is the most common cause of DSD in children. Feminizing genitoplasty depends on the

extent of virilization of the external genitalia, and the length of the urogenital sinus. Herein we present a case of

urogenital sinus anomaly with no clitoromegaly.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

the video describes total urogenital sinus mobilization with no clitoroplasty because of absent clitoromegaly. Inverted U

perineal flap is harvested, mobilization of the sinus until separate urethral orifice and vaginal orifice was reached,

maturation of the flap to post wall of the vagina, maturation of the vestibule.

RESULTS

Perfect cosmetic appearance, good caliber vaginal orifice was maintained with no dilatation, normal urethral orifice and

no urological complaints.

CONCLUSIONS

feminizing genitoplasty should be tailored to the degree of virilization of the genitalia, clitoroplasty is performed

whenever clitoroplasty is present, urogenital sinus mobilization achieves excellent cosmetic outcome.
