title: Gonadoblastoma with tubal pregnancy.
abstract: A case of unilateral gonadoblastoma in association with a ruptured ectopic tubal pregnancy is presented. The patient had normal menstrual history prior to a missed period followed by abdominal pain and the passage of clots. The surgical specimens, in addition to the ruptured tubal pregnancy, showed nodular foci of typical gonadoblastoma in the right ovary, the remainder of the ovarian tissue being normal. The left ovary was subsequently removed and examination revealed normal constituents without evidence of tumor. Cytogenetic evaluation of peripheral leukocytes showed cells with a normal female sex chromatin complement, 46-XX, as well as cells with 45 chromosomes in which one of the X chromosomes was missing.
