Invasive dysgerminoma in a girl with 45,X/46,X; mar mosaicism

R A Pfeiffer et al. Arch Gynecol. 1983.

Abstract

We report a 16-year-old girl with features of Turner's syndrome from whom an invasive dysgerminoma was removed. Cytotoxic drugs were given for the next 12 months. Mosaicism of two karyotypes (45,X/46,X; mar) was found in various tissues. The literature is reviewed with special regard to cytogenetic findings and prognosis of malignant growth and differentiation of dysgenetic gonads.
