Abstract

A case of gonadoblastoma associated with metastatic embryonal carcinoma occurring in a phenotypic female with 46,XY pure gonadal dysgenesis is presented. Two years after treatment with surgery and combination chemotherapy the patient is disease free. This is the third reported case and first reported cure in the English-language literature over the past 25 years. Current management is reviewed.
