Presentation
PPSH usually consists of:
- a phallus midway in size between penis and clitoris,
- a chordee tethering it to the perineum,
- a urethral opening usually on the perineum (the hypospadias),
- and an incompletely closed urogenital opening, which resembles a small and shallow vagina.
Testes are often palpable in the scrotum or inguinal canals, and the karyotype is XY. In most cases there are no internal female structures such as a uterus or other mullerian duct derivatives.
