True human hermaphroditism (when an individual has both ovarian and testicular tissue) is very rare - the documented karyotypes are 47XXY, 46XX/46XY, or 46XX/47XXY, and various degrees of mosaicism.

This means that human hermaphrodites can have XXY sex chromosomes, or combinations where they have two genetically distinct populations of cells (chimera or mosaicism).
