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.

Palabras clave : secret; genital ambiguity; parents; psychoanalysis.
