Abstract
The cases involving 32 women who had undergone early revision of ambiguous genitalia were reviewed 5-22 yr postoperatively. Seven clitoridectomies, 25 clitoral recessions, 17 Y-V introitoplasties and 10 midline episiotomies were performed. There were 16 patients available for followup. The results of clitoral recessions were cosmetically and functionally satisfactory. Introital revisions done before puberty all required further revision and suggested that vaginoplasty should be deferred until after puberty.
