Male pseudohermaphroditism in sibs with the α‐thalassemia/mental retardation (ATR‐X) syndrome

Genital abnormalities have been noted in several patients with the X-linked form of alpha-thalassemia and mental retardation syndrome (ATR-X). The initial clinical report of the condition documented a phenotypic female with 46,XY karyotype. To this we now add 2 further siblings with abnormalities of the external genitalia, manifesting as male pseudohermaphroditism.
