[Disorders of sex development in dogs].
In two prepubertal dogs of female phenotype, a clitoral enlargement with a penile structure leading to recurring inflammation of the vagina was diagnosed. Progesterone, oestrogen and testosterone serum concentrations were radioimmunologically analysed. The histology of the penile structure, the gonads and the uterus was made via a hematoxylin-eosin staining method. The chromosome constitution being analysed by the method of Basur and Gilman (1964) was 2n = 78,XX. Regarding all results of this investigation the diagnose was XX-male. The development of this sexual disorder is discussed. The surgical removal of gonads and uterus and the excision of the enlarged clitoris is described.
