Abstract
|
|
|
|
A 6-year-old female presented to our hospital with clitoromegaly. On physical examination, she demonstrated evidence of precocious pubic hair and clitoromegaly. The relaxed clitoris measured 3.7 cm in length. Her uterus was undetectable on diagnostic transvaginal ultrasonography and abdomen-pelvis computed tomography (CT) with otherwise normal-appearing internal female genitalia. We planned reduction clitoroplasty with preservation of the dorsal neurovascular pedicle to maintain sensitivity of the glans clitoris. After surgery, the patient demonstrated good recovery. The parents of the patient were satisfied with the surgical results. The patient was discharged without complications on hospital day 6.
