Abstract
Feminizing Testicular Syndrome is a very rare genetic disease of recessive transmission linked to the X chromosome, currently called Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (AIS). The affected subjects are apparently normal women, but with a 46 XY male karyotype with ectopic testicles. Through a case of “AIS revealed” by a germ tumor (GT) on an ectopic testicle in a 33-year-old patient who underwent a bilateral orchidectomy. The patient received 10 sessions of chemotherapy declared in remission. Following a sexual desire, the patient received a sigmoid vaginoplasty 5 years later according to Schmid’s technique. The surgical follow-up was favorable and the patient quickly resumed a satisfactory sexual activity.
