ACACIO, Karolline Hélcias Pacheco; ZANOTTI, Susane Vasconcelos    MONLLEO, Isabella Lopes. The secret in the clinic of genital ambiguity: A case study. []. , 23, 2, pp.306-321. ISSN 1415-7128.  https://doi.org/10.11606/issn.1981-1624.v23i2p306-321.

This article presents the statute of the family secret as a way of confronting the diagnosis of genital ambiguity in a child. The case study, conducted through a psychoanalytic clinical listening, disclosed a unique and particular parental experience in facing their child's genital ambiguity. We highlight individuals' particular attempts to assimilate the reality of this genetic condition through a family secret established between the patient's parents and older brother.
