Introduction And Importance: Disorders of sexual development (DSD) are a rare but disastrous condition. A plethora of biological, psychological, and ethical problems surround the management of DSD cases.
Case Presentation: A case of 25-year-old woman with a complaint of primary amenorrhea was presented.
Background: Undescended testes (UDT) is a condition where one or both testes is absent in the scrotum. The general age recommendation in which the treatment should be performed is before 18 months old due to the infertility risk and malignancy in later life. In post-pubertal UDT, the current guideline recommends orchiectomy; however, the strength rating of this recommendation is weak.

This study aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of currently available observational data to assess the association of maternal CH with hypospadias risk.
Methods: Literature searches were performed using EMBASE, SCOPUS, Pubmed, and manual methods according to PRISMA 2020 guidelines and MOOSE checklist.
Introduction: Delayed graft function (DGF) is a common condition that necessitates dialysis during the first week after transplantation. Although DGF rarely occurs following living-donor kidney transplantation (LDKT), it may eventually lead to acute or chronic graft rejection. This study aimed to assess the risk factors for DGF in patients who underwent LDKT.

- Scrotal and inguinal orchiopexy are two surgical methods for treating palpable undescended testis (UDT), each with benefits, leading to a need for thorough analysis to determine the best option.
- A review of eight randomized controlled trials (RCTs) showed that scrotal orchiopexy has a significantly shorter operative time than the inguinal method, but both approaches have similar rates for complications, hospitalization, and other key outcomes.
- The study concludes that both techniques are effective, with scrotal orchiopexy being preferable for its quicker procedure time, aiding clinicians in their decision-making regarding UDT treatment.
