Overview
Gonadoblastoma has no characteristic physical feature, however, any clue to existence of an intersex disorder must raise the concern for diagnosing the coexisting gonadoblastoma. Patients with gonadoblastoma can appear phenotypically female or male. It is of particular note that clinical presentation may be varied considering the nature of abnormal gonad and the amount of steroid hormone in it. In phenotypic women, physical examination of patients can be remarkable for virilization or the presence of a pelvic mass.In phenotypic men, physical examination suggestive of gonadoblastoma are undescended testes and hypospadias.
Physical Examination
Gonadoblastoma has no characteristic physical feature, however, any clue to existence of an intersex disorder must raise the concern for diagnosing the coexisting gonadoblastoma.[1][2]
- Affected individuals can appear phenotypically female or male.
- It is of particular note that clinical presentation may be varied considering the nature of abnormal gonad and the amount of steroid hormone in it.
- In phenotypic women, physical examination of patients can be remarkable for virilization or the presence of a pelvic mass.
- In phenotypic men, physical examination suggestive of gonadoblastoma are undescended testes and hypospadias.
