dysgenetic gonadal malignant transformation
16 May 2011Gonadoblastoma (GB) is an in situ tumor consisting of a heterogeneous population of mature and immature germ cells, other cells resembling immature Sertoli/granulosa cells, and Leydig/lutein-like cells, may also be present.
Gonadoblastoma almost exclusively affects a subset of patients with intersex disorders and in 30% of them overgrowth of the germinal component of the tumor is observed and the lesion is term dysgerminoma/seminoma.
Several pathways have been proposed to explain the (...) -

Gonadal teratoma
The relative proportion of teratoma among the germ cell tumors is quite different in the two gonads, with about 95% of ovarian germ cell tumors represented by pure ovarian teratoma, but only about 4% of testicular teratoma among testicular germ cell tumors.
Most teratomatous elements in the testis occur as a component of mixed germ cell tumors, which represent about (...) -

46,XY partial gonadal dysgenesis with minifascicular neuropathy
27 October 201046,XY partial gonadal dysgenesis with minifascicular neuropathy may be caused by mutation in the desert hedgehog gene (DHH; MIM.605423).
Mutations in the DHH gene have also been found in patients with 46,XY complete gonadal dysgenesis who do not have minifascicular neuropathy (DHH-associated gonadal dysgenesis) (MIM.233420).
