title: The anatomical assessment of disorders of sex development (DSD).
abstract: The assessment of abnormal anatomy in cases of DSD is important to aid diagnosis, understand the aetiology and severity of the condition, guide management and assess the outcomes of treatment. In this paper we present a systematic approach to this assessment which will provide a means by which the multiple disciplines who manage patients with these rare and complex conditions can communicate and thus improve overall care.
