Congenital genitalia anomalies are a spectrum of malformation, difficult to classify because similar or identical phenotypes could have several different aetiology; therefore it's essential to assess an efficient diagnostic algorithm for a quick diagnosis and to develop an efficient therapeutic strategy. The aim of this study is to underline the importance of imaging in case of ambiguous genitalia due to its high sensitivity and specificity in detecting internal organs and urogenital anatomy.

Abstract

Congenital genitalia anomalies are a spectrum of malformation, difficult to classify because similar or identical phenotypes could have several different aetiology; therefore it's essential to assess an efficient diagnostic algorithm for a quick diagnosis and to develop an efficient therapeutic strategy. The aim of this study is to underline the importance of imaging in case of ambiguous genitalia due to its high sensitivity and specificity in detecting internal organs and urogenital anatomy.
