Female hypospadias: a case report.
A case of proximal female hypospadias with urethral atresia is reported, and a nosological definition of this rare congenital anomaly is proposed. An attempt to clarify the difference between a urogenital sinus and a proximal or distal female hypospadias is made by examining the embryology of the urogenital tract.
