30
Q

The appearance of the ovary in the neonatal period is ____________ secondary to tiny cysts.

A

heterogeneous

31
Q

The blood supply to the ovary is from the _______ artery (originates directly from the aorta) and from the uterine artery, which supplies an adnexal branch to each ovary.

A

ovarian

32
Q

If mullerian anomalies are encountered, the __________ should be examined for ipsilateral renal agenesis or morphologic abnormalities.

A

kidneys

33

A

uterus didelphys

36
Q

A duplication of the uterus with a common cervix is _________

A

bicornuate uterus

37
Q

A uterus that is normal in size and shape externally but whose cavity is T shaped with an irregular contour is associated with ____________ exposure

diethylstilbestrol

38
Q

In ______________ the embryo has the potential to develop as a male or female.

39
Q

True precocious puberty is always _____________ and involves the development of secondary sexual characteristics and an increase in the size and activity of the gonads.

A

isosexual

40
Q

Precocious pseudopuberty involves the maturation of secondary sexual characteristics but not the __________ because there is no activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis.

A

gonad

41
Q

Excessive exogenous synthesis of gonadal _______ (by the adrenal gland, tumors or cysts) is the most common cause of precocious pseudo puberty: prolonged exposure to exogenous gonadal hormones may mature that central nervous system and cause true precocious puberty in some children.
