This leaked report is believed to have been written in June 2023 by the Kremlin-Bicêtre Hospital of Paris, France, and Mohamed Lamine Debaghine Hospital of Algiers, Algeria, in collaboration.
What did Imane’s leaked medical report say? An MRI result attached with the report, which was a copy of an extensive physical examination that was conducted on Khelif to confirm whether one had a disorder of sexual development, reportedly also concluded that Khelif did not have a uterus but instead internal testicles and a “micropenis” resembling an enlarged clitoris.
According to Aoudia, following the MRI test, Khelif was also taken through a chromosomal test, which further confirmed that the Algerian has an XY karyotype. A hormone test was also conducted, which found that Khelif had a testosterone level typical of males.
After examination, doctors had suggested that Khelif’s parents may have been blood relatives, claimed Aoudia.
The report further recommended that the boxer be referred for “surgical correction and hormone therapy” aside from psychological support.
5-alpha-reductase deficiency
5-alpha-reductase deficiency is a medical condition that affects the sexual development of individuals who are genetically male before birth and during puberty.
Many individuals with 5-alpha reductase deficiency are, therefore, initially considered female based on their outwardly deformed genitalia, which may not look either male or female.
It is believed that individuals with the deficiency will experience early-onset masculinization, with enhanced muscle growth, hair growth, and the absence of breast tissue serving as early signs.
