Advancing pediatric genital reconstruction in a resource-limited setting: A case of subtunical reduction clitoroplasty in a young girl

This case highlights the successful surgical management of clitoromegaly in a child from a resource-limited setting through subtunical clitoroplasty. It underscores the importance of international collaboration in advancing pediatric genital reconstruction and the need for ongoing support for both medical and psychosocial outcomes in such cases. Further research is needed to evaluate long-term outcomes in similar settings.
