Abstract
A case of true hermaphroditism is reported with feminine habitus, ovotestis, and XX/XY cell admixture. Whole body could be proved to exist by the discovery of different blood groups and PGM types. This is the eleventh case of whole-body chimerism reported, a condition thought to be more common than recognized. Diagnosis of the existence of two cell lines was enhanced by the use of the quinacrine mustard fluorescent technique. This technique is advocated for future study of similar cases, with touch preparations to obviate the necessary selection of cells occurring in tissue culture.
