Dr. '''Ian A. Aaronson''', {{MD}}, is a pediatric urologist and retired professor at the {{UNI|Medical University of South Carolina|MUSC}} (MUSC). Aaronson has had a long time interest in the treatment of children born with [[intersex ]] traits.
In 2006, Aaronson performed feminizing surgery on MC, a 16 month old baby in the custody of the state of South Carolina who had been born with a relatively rare intersex disorder called ovotesticular DSD. After adoption, MC soon expressed gender dissatisfaction, and soon adopted a male identity.
