Hypergonado-tropic hypogonadism condition was investigated by hormonal laboratory assessment and the result of cytogenetic analysis carried out in France revealed a karyotype SRY-negative 46, XX isch Yp11, 3. The patient received psychological assistance and substitutive treatment based on testosterone. Reconstructive surgery was also conducted to correct urogenital malformations.
