Ovotesticular syndrome
Gonad containing both ovarian and testicular tissue
Ovotesticular syndrome
Ovotesticular syndrome (also known as ovotesticular disorder or OT-DSD) is a rare congenital condition of atypical sexual differentiation where an individual is born with both ovarian and testicular tissue. It is one of the rarest disorders of sex development, with an incidence rate of approximately one in 100,000 live births. Commonly, one or both gonads is an ovotestis containing both types of tissue. Although it is similar in some ways to mixed gonadal dysgenesis, the conditions can be distinguished histologically. Ovotesticular syndrome was previously called true hermaphroditism. People with ovotesticular syndrome are considered intersex.
