Laparoscopic approach to müllerian derivatives in a male with mixed gonadal dysgenesis.
Müllerian derivatives are a frequent finding in patients with external genital ambiguity. In cases in which their removal is indicated, traditional surgical approaches are both invasive and associated with risks. We report a case of mixed gonadal dysgenesis in which a large prostatic utricle was successfully removed via laparoscopy.
