Adnexal torsion due to borderline mucinous tumor of the gonad in a prepubertal girl with mixed gonadal dysgenesis (45X/46XY) and a Turner phenotype

We present the case of a TS patient with 45X,46XY with two episodes of left adnexal torsion (AT). Biopsies during detorsion showed benign mucinous cystadenoma. Pathology following bilateral gonadectomy revealed left gonad with mucinous borderline tumor and right gonad with gonadoblastoma, both of which have malignant potential.
