Association of Klinefelter syndrome and abdominal teratoma: a case report
J Pediatr Surg.
1998 May.
Abstract
Extragonadal germ cell tumors are rare. The association with Klinefelter syndrome has become observed recently. A case of an 11-month-old infant with Klinefelter syndrome and a retroperitoneal mature teratoma is presented. In the tumor and lymphocytes, a 47,XXY karyotype was found. The association of Klinefelter syndrome with germ cell tumors and its possible explanations are discussed.
