Male pseudohermaphroditism due to 17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency
Male pseudohermaphroditism due to 17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency is a deficiency of 17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase isozyme 3 which leads to male pseudohermaphroditism, a condition characterized by incomplete differentiation of male genitalia in 46XY males. It is caused by mutations in the HSD17B3 gene.
