- Abstract
- Androgen insensitivity(testicular feminization) syndrome is characterized by end organandrogen resistance associated with X-linked chromosomal disorder. Mutation of androgenreceptor gene impairs normal sexual differentiation and development in karyotypic male,resulting in a spectrum of external genital phenotypes ranging from complete female to nearlycomplete male. A case of complete testicular feminization syndrome is presented with briefreview.
