Sensory innervation of the ovotestis in the snailHelix aspersa [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2003
SUMMARYBecause oviposition in the land snail Helix aspersa is a metabolically expensive process coupled to a high fixed cost, one expects oviposition to occur only when the clutch size surpasses a minimum value at which the reproductive benefit exceeds the cost. We propose that neural innervation of the gonad allows H.

Crossed ectopia of ovotestis in a case of true hermaphroditism

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1996
True hermaphroditism is a rare form of intersex disorder. The authors report a case of true hermaphroditism with crossed ectopia of an ovotestis from the left to the right scrotum. The karyotype of the patient was 46,XX, without mosaicism. The majority of the ovotestis was comprised of testicular tissue.
