Description
Black and white photograph of the external genitalia of a man which resembled the pudenda to such an extent that for some years the individual had been brought up as a girl. The photograph represents the parts after an operation had been performed in order to restore the meatus urinarius. (A black catheter is placed in the urethra.) It is evident that this is not a case of hermaphroditism, but simply one of an extensive and complete hypospadias.
