Gonadoblastomas are rare germ cell and sex cord stromal tumours, often associated with dysgerminomas. They occur almost entirely in patients with pure or mixed gonadal dysgenesis and in male pseudohermaphroditism. A 19 year old female was admitted in our hospital for evaluation of primary amenorrhoea. She had poor secondary sexual characters, left sided streak gonad and right sided ovarian tumour. Histopathology showed gonadoblastoma in streak gonad with contralateral dysgerminoma. This case is presented because of its rarity and clinical importance of recognizing such cases because of excellent prognosis.
性腺母细胞瘤是一种罕见的生殖细胞和性索间质肿瘤,常与无性细胞瘤相关。它们几乎完全发生在单纯或混合性性腺发育不全患者以及男性假两性畸形患者中。一名19岁女性因原发性闭经入院我院评估。她第二性征发育不良,左侧条索状性腺及右侧卵巢肿瘤。组织病理学显示条索状性腺中有性腺母细胞瘤,对侧有无性细胞瘤。之所以呈现这个病例,是因为其罕见性以及认识到此类病例因其良好预后而具有的临床重要性。
