Abstract:   (2007 Views)
Introduction: Swyer syndrome is determined by primary amenorrhea, normal external genitalia, and the presence of a vagina, uterus, and 46XY karyotype. The aim of this case report was to introduce a patient with Swyer syndrome referred with pain and an abdominal mass.
Patient Information: This case study was done in Gynecology Clinic of Ghaem Hospital in Mashhad, Iran, in 2015. A single 18-year-old woman came to the clinic with complaints of primary amenorrhea, pain, and abdominal mass underwent laparotomy. Based on her histopathology report which indicated a left ovary dysgerminoma and a right ovary gonadoblastoma, a bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, followed by chemotherapy, was conducted. The patient was under Bleomycin, Etoposide and Platinum (BEP) chemotherapy and has been living without evidence of recurrence.
Conclusion: A genetic disorder in patients younger than 20 years with an ovarian mass and diagnosis of dysgerminoma should be rejected.
