8 SEX and GENDER? 8 November
9 DR. ANITA WHAT IS THE MEANING OF GENDER? 8 November
10 Sex and Gender Gender social meaning attached to being male or female gender identity - sense of being male or female gender role - expectations about how a male or female should behave 8 November
11 Defining Sex and Gender Gender identity (Psychological sex) Inner sense of owns maleness / femaleness. Sex of rearing Gender role 8 November
12 GENDER.. 8 November
13 DR. PREMA PRABHUDEV WHAT IS THE MEANING OF SEX? 8 November
14 CONFUSION..SEX..at different times 8 November
15 SEX & GENDER Sexual identity (Organic sex) The biologic sexual differentiation Chromosomal sex Gonadal sex Internal genital sex External genital sex Hormonal sex 8 November
16 Sex and Gender Androgyny - hermaphrodism sex: possessing both male and female reproductive organs gender: possessing both male and female qualities 8 November
17 DR. JYOTHI SHETTY HOW WILL YOU CLASSIFY DSD 8 November
18 CLASSIFIATION OF DSD Sex Chromosome DSD 46, XY DSD 46, XX DSD 45, X Turner syndrome 47, XXY - KFS Disorders of Gonadal (Testicular) Development 45, X/46, XY Mixed Gonadal Complete GD dysgenesis, Ovotesticular DSD Partial GD Gonadal Regression 46, XX / 46 XY (Chimeric, Ovotesticular DSD Ovotesticular DSD) Disorders Of Androgen Synthesis StAR mutation CAIS, PAIS. LH receptor defects Disorders AMH & AMH receptors Disorders of Gonadal (ovarian) Development Ovotesticular DSD (SRY translocation) Testicular DSD (SRY dup SOX9) Gonadal dysgenesis Androgen excess Fetal (CAH) Feto placental Maternal (Luteoma) 8 November
19 DR. RAMESH BABU DO YOU AGREE WITH JYOTHI SHETTY? 8 November
20 CLASSIFICATION OF INTERSEX 1. Virilization of genitically female foetus Female pseudohemaphroditism (xx- MALE) 2. Incomplete musculinization of genitically male foetus Male pseudohermaphroditism (XY-FEMALE) 3. The presence of both ovarian and testicular tissue in the same individual True hermaphroditism 4. Chromosomal abnormality Mixed gonadal dysgenesis ( 45,X0 / 46,XY) 8 November
21 DR. SHRIPAD HEBBAR CAN YOU JUST OUT LINE THE DEVELOPMENT OF MALE AND FEMALE SEX? 8 November
22 Female development Neutral Development Urogenital sinus Mullerian ducts Female external genitalia. Lower part of vagina Absence of androgen exposure Female internal genital Organs. Most of upper vagina. Cervix and uterus. Fallopian tubes 8 November
23 Summary of Normal Sex Differentiation genetic sex is determined at fertilization. testes develop in XY fetus, ovaries develop in XX fetus. XY fetus produces MIS and androgens and XX fetus does not. XY fetus develops Wolffian ducts and XX fetus develops Mullerian ducts. XY fetus masculinizes the female genitalia to make it male and the XX fetus retains female genitalia. 8 November
24 Normal Prenatal Development: The Brain Sexual differentiation: Male: Testosterone secreted into the blood reaches the brain testosterone converted to estradiol and dihydrotestosterone in the brain estradiol masculinizes the brain Female: alpha-fetoprotein binds to estradiol prevents estradiol from entering the brain protects female brains from being masculinized by estradiol 8 November
25 DR. ANITA CAN YOU TELL THE SECRET OF SEX DEVELOPMENT? 8 November
26 Default sex FEMALE Male hormones are needed to promote differentiation into a male 8 November

28 DR. SATISH NAYAK WHAT ARE SEX CHROMOSOME DSDs? 8 November
29 SEX CHROMOSOME DISORDERS Disorders of Gonadal Differentiation and Development 8 November
30 DR. PREMA PRABHUDEV CAN YOU TELL ME SOMETHING ABOUT CLINICAL FEATURES OF TURNER s SYNDROME? 8 November
31 Turner s Syndrome (45 X0) Absence of the second X or Y chromosome means no testicular development Female phenotype Oogonia are unable to complete their development only the stroma of the ovary are present (streak ovaries) No oestrogen production at puberty Absent secondary sexual characters Genes involved in achieving final height are shared by sex chromosomes Absence of 1 sex chromosome Short stature LH, FSH 8 November
32 Turner s Syndrome (45,XO) No oocytes remain in the ovaries, which become streaks Fertility = 60% pregnancy rate w/art Ovum donation for those with bilateral streaks 1 in 2500 live births 60% are 45,XO and 40% are mosaics Y chromosomal material masculinization & gonadoblastoma (30%) 33% - 60% have structural or positional abnormalities of the kidney horseshoe kidney = 10%, duplication or renal agenesis= 20% malrotation= 15% multiple renal arteries = 90% Four classic features: female phenotype short stature lack of secondary sexual characteristics a variety of somatic abnormalities: Webbed neck Wide spaced nipples Broad chest (shield) Cubitus valgus Short stature peripheral edema at birth, short 4th metacarpal, hypoplastic nails, multiple 8 November 2011 pigmented nevi, coarctation of the aorta, 32 and renal anomalies
33 Turner syndrome work up IVP or renal USG Echocardiography Audiometry TFT (annually) & Ab (at least one) Lipid profile & glucose metabolism (annually) Annual pelvic examination & appropriate screening for gonadal neoplasm as an adnexal mass Expert consultation to pursue further analysis with X- and Y- specific DNA probes 8 November
34 DR. SREELAXMI WHAT ARE THE SALIENT CLINICAL FEATURES OF KLINEFELTER s SYNDROME? 8 November
35 Klinefelter's syndrome 8 November 2011 (Williams Textbook of Endocrinology, 10 th ed, 2003) 35
36 Seminiferous Tubule Dysgenesis (Klinefelter's syndrome) Syndrome characterized by eunuchoidism, gynecomastia, azoospermia, increased gonadotropin levels, and small, firm testes, 47,XXY karyotype nondisjunction during meiosis 1 of 1000 liveborn males associated with 48,XXYY; 49,XXXYY; 48,XXXY; 49,XXXXY; 46,XY/47XXY Gynecomastia can be quite marked at pubertal development 8 X risk for breast carcinoma compared with normal males Seminiferous tubules degenerate and are replaced with hyaline Fertility, with the benefit of ICSI, has been reported in one patient decreased androgens prevents normal secondary sexual development poor muscle development, the fat distribution is more female than male. Normal amounts of pubic and axillary hair, but facial hair is sparse. Patients tend to be taller than average, due to disproportionately long legs Predisposed to malignant neoplasms of extragonadal germ cell origin. Androgen supplementation to improve libido & reduction mammoplasty surveillance for breast carcinoma 8 November
37 MIXED GONADAL DYSGENESIS Combined features of Turner s syndrome and male pseudohermaphroditism Short stature Streak gonad on one side with a testis on the other Unicornuate uterus & fallopian tube- side of streak gonad Karyotype 46XY / 45X0 Considrable variation in the sexual phenotype 11/8/2011 JOSHI SUYAJNA D. 37
38 True Hermaphroditism Individuals who have both testicular tissue with well-developed seminiferous tubules and ovarian tissue with primordial follicles, which may take the form of one ovary and one testis or, more commonly, one or two ovotestes. External genitalia and internal duct structures of true hermaphrodites display gradations between male and female (Williams Textbook of Endocrinology, 10th ed, 2003) 11/8/2011 JOSHI SUYAJNA D. 38
39 True Hermaphroditism In most patients, the external genitalia are ambiguous but masculinized to variable degrees, and 75% are raised as male Internal ductal development are influenced by ipsilateral gonad Fallopian tubes are consistently present on the side of the ovary a vas deferens is always present adjacent to a testis Fallopian tube is present with 66% of ovotestes, vas or both in 33% Most have urogenital sinus and and uterus 80% of those raised as male have hypospadias and chordee Ovaries usually on left in normal position, testis usually on right and located anywhere along path of descent 60% of gonads palpable in canal or labia are ovotestes 11/8/2011 JOSHI SUYAJNA D. 39
40 True Hermaphroditism Ovarian portion of the ovotestis is frequently normal, whereas the testicular portion is typically dysgenetic 66% of patients are 46 XX Gonadal tumors is approximately 10% in 46,XY true hermaphroditism and 4% in 46,XX true hermaphroditism Most important aspect of management in true hermaphroditism is gender assignment Sex assignment should be based on the functional potential of external genitalia, internal ducts, and gonads, according to the findings at laparoscopy or laparotomy. Unlike patients with most other forms of gonadal dysgenesis, true hermaphrodites have the potential for fertility if raised as female with the appropriate ductal structures Males, remove ovaries and/or ovotestis and mullerian duct structures consider gonadectomy Females remove all testicular and wolffian structures 11/8/2011 JOSHI SUYAJNA D. 40
41 TRUE HERMAPHRODITISM Gonads : - ovary one side and testis on the other or - bilateral ovotestis Karyotype : 46,XX most common(57%); XY(13%) and XX/XY(30%) Internal genitalia : Both mullerian and wolffian derivates Phenotype is variable Gonadal biopsy is required for confirming diagnosis 11/8/2011 JOSHI SUYAJNA D. 41
42 DYSEMBRYOGENESIS genital ambiguity with associated anomalies Can occur in both genitic males and genitic females Most common genital malformation : - Penoscrotal transposition - Agenesis of phallus in a genitic male Coexistence of other caudal or urologic abnormalities should strongly suggest dysembryogenisis 11/8/2011 JOSHI SUYAJNA D. 42
43 Drugs with Androgenic side effects ingested during pregnancy - Testosterone - Synthetic progestins - Danocrine - Diazoxide - Minoxidil - Phenetoin sodium - Streptomycin - Penicillamine 11/8/2011 JOSHI SUYAJNA D. 43
44 How many children are born with DSD conditions? A conservative estimate is that 1 in 2000 children born will be affected by an intersex condition. 98 % of affected babies are due to congenital adrenal hyperplasia 8 November
45 DR. SHRIPAD HEBBAR WHAT IS MEANING OF FEMALE PSEUDOHERMAPHODITISM? 8 November
46 FEMALE PSEUDOHERMAPHRODITISM EXCESS FETAL ANDROGENS Congenital adrenal hyperplasia 21 -hydroxylase deficiency 11-hydroxylase deficiency 3ß-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency EXCESS MATERNAL ANDROGENS Maternal androgen secreting tumours (ovary, adrenal) Maternal ingestion of androgenic drugs 8 November
47 DR. SREELAXMI CAN YOU TO TELL THE IMPORTANT FEATURES OF CAH? 8 November
48 Female Pseudohermaphroditism 46,XX individuals with ovaries have a partially masculinized phenotype and ambiguous genitalia CAH is most common cause Uncommon etiologies: Maternal ingestion of androgens Virilizing tumors in the mother Marked virilization with hypospadiac-appearing phallus clitoromegaly labioscrotal fusion 8 November

64 ACTUAL PROBLEM.. 8 November
65 DR. ANITA WHAT ARE THE CLINICAL PRESENTATIONS OF DSD 8 November
66 How do DSD present in clinical practice? Atypical genitalia at birth is the common presentation Atypical genitalia presenting late in childhood and adolescence Primary amenorrhea, delayed puberty or atypical secondary sexual features Infertility Premature menopause 8 November
67 CLINICAL PRESENTATION OF DSD AT BIRTH Ambiguous genitalia DURING CHILDHOOD Heterosexual features AT ADOLESSCENCE Delayed or Heterosexual Puberty 8 November
68 DR. SREELAXMI HOW DOES A NORMAL TERM FEMALE EXTERNAL GENITALIA LOOK LIKE? 8 November
69 What s normal in a term newborn? Female: Vaginal opening fully visible: 3-4 mm slit or stellate orifice with heaped-up mucosa Clitoris width 2-6 mm Absence of gonads in labia majora or inguinal region 8 November
70 DR. SREELAXMI HOW DOES A NORMAL MALE LOOK LIKE IN A TERM MALE CHILD? 8 November
71 What s normal in a term newborn? Male: Urethra at tip of glans (may be inferred by a fully developed foreskin) Penis of normal stretched length (2.5-5 cm) and diameter ( cm) Bilateral testes of normal size (8-14 mm) in the scrotal sacs 8 November
72 DR. PREMA PRABHUDEV WHAT IS AMBIGUOUS GENITALIA? 8 November
73 Ambiguous genitalia: what is it? Evaluation of DSD problem required for: 1. Male-appearing genitalia with micropenis, mod/severe hypospadias, bilateral cryptorchidism, or two mild defects (e.g. mild hypospadias and unilateral cryptorchidism) 2. Female-appearing genitalia with posterior labial fusion, clitorimegaly, or a labial or inguinal mass 8 November
74 How would you evaluate a newborn baby with genitalia as shown below? 8 November
75 AMBIGUOUS GENITALIA AT BIRTH The external genital organs look unusual, making it impossible to identify the sex of the newborn from its outward appearance. Any one of the following : A small, hypospadiac phallus and unilaterally undescended gonad. An enlarged phallus with bilaterally impalpable gonads. An enlarged phallus and a vagina in the same infant. 8 November
76 DR. JYOTHI SHETY WHAT ARE THE PRINCIPALS OF MANAGEMENT OF AMBIGUOUS GENITALIA AT BIRTH? 8 November
77 MANAGEMENT OF NEWBORN WITH AMBIGUOUS GENITALIA GENERAL GIUDELINES Medical and social emergency Avoid immediate declaration of sex Proper counselling of the parents Team management; obstetrician, neonatologist, pediatric endocrinolgist, genetist and paediatric surgeon. 8 November
78 MANAGEMENT OF NEWBORN WITH AMBIGUOUS GENITALIA DIAGNOSIS History : pregnancy; family Detailed examination : abdomen; pelvis; external genitalia; urethral and anal openings. Federman s rule: a palpable gonad below the inguinal ligament is testes until proven otherwise 8 November
79 MANAGEMENT OF NEWBORN WITH AMBIGUOUS GENITALIA Investigations Rule out cong. Adrenal hyperplasia: Serum electrolytes; 17-OHP level and urinary levels of 17-ketosteroids Karyotype ( buccal smear; blood) Pelvic US and sometimes MRI or Genitogram Skin biopsy; fibroblast culture to measure 5alpha-reductase activity or dihydrotestosterone binding Laparoscopy Gonadal biopsy (laparotomy) 8 November
80 DR. HEBBAR WHAT IS THE MANAGEMENT PROTOCOL? 8 November
81 A PROTOCOL FOR INVESTIGATION OF A NEWBORN WITH AMBIGUOUS GENITALIA Karyotype all Palpable gonad NO YES CAH Sreen. Biochemical profile Positive Negative. US / MRI /? genitogram - US / MRI -? Genitogram.? Gonadal biopsy 8 November
82 OPEN QUESTION HOW TO ASSIGN SEX? 8 November
83 Sex assignment General guidelines Sex assignment should be decided after detailed assessment, investigations and accurate diagnosis Complete gender assignment by age 18 months 8 November
84 Sex assignment Male gender assignment : - stretched phallus > 2 cm - erectile tissue - lack of severe hypospadias Female gender assignment : - inadequate phallus - cervix and uterus present In difficult cases; sex assignment should be to the sex which can be surgically made to be adequate for coitus 8 November
85 SURGICAL CONSIDERATIONS Phallic / clitoral reduction if the assigned sex is female, before 3 years of age Removal of intra-abdominal gonads / streaks in newborns carrying Y chromosome Vaginal construction / repair is better performed around puberty 8 November
86 Before surgery After surgery 8 November
87 Concluding remarks on Management of newborn with genital ambiguity The causes of ambiguous genitalia are many and complex, so it is important to approach the treatment of children with this disorder in a systematic fashion. Evaluation should be done expeditiously, and parents should be kept informed during the evaluation to help them understand the embryologic anomaly that led to their child's genital ambiguity. Endocrine supplementation should be instituted when necessary, and a pediatric surgeon should be actively involved in assigning the child's sex of rearing as well as performing any necessary reconstructive surgery. 8 November
88 DSD PRESENTING AT ADOLESCENCE Primary amenorrhea - Complete androgen insesitivity (TFS) - Congenital anorchia ( early testicular regression syndrome) - Complete leydig-cell agenesis - Some forms of enzymatic testicular failure Ambiguous genitalia - Neglected congenital adrenal hyperplasia - Mixed gonadal dysgenesis - Partial androgen resistance - Congenital anorchia ( Late ) - Testicular enzymatic failure - Leydig cell agenesis ( incomplete) - True hermaphrotidism 8 November
89 MANAGEMENT OF DSD PRESENTING AT ADOLESCENCE Cortisol replacement therapy and? Corrective surgery in CAH Corrective surgery in drug induced cliteromegally In almost all other instances (XY- FEMALE), whatever the diagnosis is to Maintain the gender role as female In some cases of enzymatic testicular defects or 5 -reductase deficiency : Some May seek to change the gender role 8 November
