This condition used to be called "male pseudohermaphroditism". This is defined as incomplete masculinization of the external genitalia. [200] Thus, the person has male chromosomes, but the external genitals are incompletely formed, ambiguous, or clearly female. [193] [201] This condition is also called 46, XY with undervirilization.
Specialty. Ophthalmology. Exotropia is a form of strabismus where the eyes are deviated outward. It is the opposite of esotropia and usually involves more severe axis deviation than exophoria. People with exotropia often experience crossed diplopia. Intermittent exotropia is a fairly common condition. "Sensory exotropia" occurs in the presence ...
External fertilization is a mode of reproduction in which a male organism's sperm fertilizes a female organism's egg outside of the female's body. [1] It is contrasted with internal fertilization , in which sperm are introduced via insemination and then combine with an egg inside the body of a female organism.
Frequency. ~2% (children) [ 3] Strabismus is a vision disorder in which the eyes do not properly align with each other when looking at an object. [ 2] The eye that is pointed at an object can alternate. [ 3] The condition may be present occasionally or constantly. [ 3] If present during a large part of childhood, it may result in amblyopia, or ...
Hypertropia is a condition of misalignment of the eyes ( strabismus ), whereby the visual axis of one eye is higher than the fellow fixating eye. Hypotropia is the similar condition, focus being on the eye with the visual axis lower than the fellow fixating eye. Dissociated vertical deviation is a special type of hypertropia leading to slow ...
Ontology is the philosophical study of being. As one of the most fundamental concepts, being encompasses all of reality and every entity within it. To articulate the basic structure of being, ontology examines what all entities have in common and how they are divided into fundamental classes, known as categories.
Cyclotropia is a form of strabismus in which, compared to the correct positioning of the eyes, there is a torsion of one eye (or both) about the eye's visual axis. Consequently, the visual fields of the two eyes appear tilted relative to each other. The corresponding latent condition – a condition in which torsion occurs only in the absence ...
