Overview
There are no ultrasound findings associated with gonadoblastoma. However, an ultrasound may be helpful in the evaluation of a mass in the gonads and the exclusion of associated conditions. In one study, sonographic findings associated with testicular gonadoblastoma was a well-defined complex mass with a solid and interspaced cystic components. It should be mentioned that cystic component is not usual for gonadoblastoma, but its presence may suggest the existence of granulosa cells in the tumor. Additionally, calcification of tumor may not be present all the time. It is also observed that gonadoblastoma may lead to an increase in echogenicity localized to the tumor location on the ultrasound imaging studies.
Ultrasound
There are no ultrasound findings associated with gonadoblastoma. However, an ultrasound may be helpful in the evaluation of a mass in the gonads and the exclusion of associated conditions.
- In one study, sonographic findings associated with testicular gonadoblastoma was a well-defined complex mass with a solid and interspaced cystic components. It should be mentioned that cystic component is not usual for gonadoblastoma, but its presence may suggest the existence of granulosa cells in the tumor. Additionally, calcification of tumor may not be present all the time.[1]
- It is also observed that gonadoblastoma may lead to an increase in echogenicity localized to the tumor location on the ultrasound imaging studies.[2]
