Abstract

The Sertoli cell only syndrome (SCOS) is a rare genetic disorder with a variable phenotype ranging from a severe ambiguous genitalia to a normal male phenotype with infertility. SCOS is diagnosed on testicular histopathology as germ cells are absent without histological impairment of Sertoli or Leydig cells. The SRY positive XX male syndrome is usually diagnosed in adulthood during infertility investigations. Here, we report a rare case of 46,XX maleness with ambiguous genitalia due to Sertoli cell only syndrome (SCOS).
