[Mixed gonadal dysgenesis with seminoma: a case report]
Abstract:
A case of mixed gonadal dysgenesis with anaplastic seminoma is reported. A 43-year-old, female, who was brought up as a female, was admitted to our hospital for swelling of left inguinal region. The physical examination revealed a short stature, ambiguous external genitalia but no Turner's stigmata. A child's head-sized tumor was noticed in the left inguinal region by CT scan. The histopathological diagnosis of this tumor was anaplastic seminoma. The right gonad was removed at laparotomy with lymph node dissection in the pelvis. Histological examination of right gonad revealed streak gonad and immature uterine with fallopian tube. In the Japanese literature, 7 cases including our case of mixed gonadal dysgenesis with gonadal tumor have been reported.
