The presented clinical case of a girl with a salt-wasting form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia in combination with chronic recurrent infection and lower urinary tract dysfunction demonstrates the need to change conventional two-staged approach to surgical feminization in favor of a one-stage intervention in order to prevent a progression of genitourinary complications. After controlling for the underlying condition, the one-stage feminization was performed, including modified tightening introitoplasty using a Passerini-Glazel flap and a correction of hypertrophic clitoris and labia minora. Good short- and long-term results were achieved.
