Abstract
- Differences of Sex Development (DSD) refer to rare conditions in which an individual’s sex development is different than typical male or female development. The neonatologist is often the first healthcare provider to interact with parents of newborns with DSD and must be familiar with the approach to patients with DSD. In this chapter, we discuss definition of DSD, initial work up of the patient with DSD, terminology, and controversies in care.
