PAGS Flashcards
(34 cards)
describe technique in Williams vaginoplasty
skin flaps from labia majora -> pouch
describe Vechietti procedure
constant tension on olive-shaped ball into dimple of vagina -> neovagina
describe sigmoid vaginoplasy
use sigmoid portion for vaginal pouch
Describe mcindoe procedure
surgically insert skin flap through peritoneum -> neovagina
Mayer Rokitansky Kuster hauser S/d a.k.a.
Mullerian agenesis
Mullerian agenesis incidence
1/5000 Females
Mullerian agenesis etiology
underdevelopment of Mullerian Duct (vagina, uterus)
ovaries normal b/c seprate embryologic source
Mullerian agenesis karyotype
46XX
Mullerian agenesis what is present?
ovaries?
uterus/vagina?
secondary sexual characteristics?
karyotype
ovaries: yes
uterus/vagina: no/remnant
secondary sexual caracteristics: yes (b/c ovaries)
46XX
embryologic origin of urinary and genital system?
intermediate mesoderm
when do mullerian ducts develop?
6wks
aka paramesonephric ducts
embryologic origin of Bartholin glands
urogenital sinus
embryologic origin of clitoris
genital tubercle
embryologic origin of labia majora
genital swelling
emryologic origin of labia minora
urogenital sinus
gene known as testis-determining factor
SRY gene (on Y ch)
AMH secreted by what cell?
timing
what does it do?
Sertoli cells
by 9-10w GA
causes regression of mullerian duct system, testis growth
female differentiation timing and MoA
timing: ~10-12ish weeks
MoA: absence of SRY gene -> bipotential gonad develops into ovary
female = default mode
mesonephric duct differentiates into:
if no testosterone, what happens? (timing)
epididymis
vas deferens
seminal vesicles
regress by 12w
Turner S/D karyotype
45XO
Turner S/D:
ovaries?
uterus/vagina?
secondary sexual characteristics?
ovaries: none / streak
uterus/vagina: yes
secondary sexual characteristics: no
capable of responding to exogenous hormones
Klinefelter S/D karyotype
47XXY
Swyer S/d a.k.a.
46XY gonadal dysgenesis
46XY gonadal dysgenesis etiology / MoA
SRY (testis-determining) mutation -> gonads dont produce androgens, AMH
