چکیده

Introduction: 46,XY pure gonadal dysgenesis (PGD) is also known as Swyer syndrome. The chromosome analysis indicates a 46,XY karyotype. As different degrees of gonadal hypoplasia or degeneration occur in the process of embryonic development due to several factors, gonadal dysplasia or gonadal tumors are probable. Conclusion: PGD is associated with a high risk of gonadal tumors. Considering the rarity of this disease, a detailed evaluation of gonadal size and timely preventive gonadectomy are recommended for patients with gonadal dysplasia. Overall, imaging examinations can provide important information for the diagnosis of gonadal dysplasia. MRI can clearly indicate the size and shape of the gonads and the tumor, as well as the relationship between the tumor and the surrounding tissue.
