Abstract
The correct diagnosis of a child with a disorder of sex development (DSD) is crucial and can be life-saving. The most challenging situation for the pediatric endocrinologist and for the parents occurs when the sex cannot be determined at birth. A UK task force has now published novel guidelines that delineate the complex program needed for an initial diagnosis.
