427. The lower portion of the trunk of a male child in which 

 the external generative organs so closely resemble those of 

 a female that the child was called " Ellen." The scrotum 

 is very large, completely divided into two halves, so that 

 it forms two labium-like folds of skin ; these are thickened 

 by hypertrophied connective and adipose tissue. The 

 penis is absent ; but a fold of skin strongly resembling the 

 nymphae and clitoris exists in its place : it is probably 

 the prepuce. The urethra and sinus pocularis open by 

 distinct orifices between the lobes of the scrotum. A 

 blue glass rod marks the orifice of the sinus. The urethra 

 is laid open laterally, as is also the lower part of the sinus. 

 The upper part of the sinus is surrounded by prostatic 

 tissue, and it terminates in a pair of cornua, to which 

 the vasa deferentia are attached; these are probably 

 impervious. The testes are abdominal. The bladder 

 and one kidney have been preserved.

428. The external and internal generative organs of a Human 



female foetus. The clitoris is greatly enlarged, and the 

 opening of the vagina is reduced to the diameter of the 

 urethra for more than an inch from its outlet ; beyond the 

 neck of the bladder it dilates to its normal size. The 

 uterus and ovaries are normal. The posterior wall of the 

 vagina has been laid open, and a bristle marks the orifice 

 externally. 



429. The generative organs of a Human female infant. The 



clitoris is very large ; a fold of skin above it represents
