The association of Turner's syndrome and endometrial carcinoma has been previously established, but has never been described in conjunction with a desmoid tumor of the colon. A case is described of a colonic desmoid tumor developing in a 38-year-old female with Turner's syndrome. The association has not been previously reported. In this report, we describe a 38-year-old woman who has Turner's syndrome with a colonic desmoid and review the literature.
