Abstract

Evaluation of extragonadal tumors in Turner's syndrome by a multi‐hospital survey of 289 cases and literature review showed a preponderance of neurogenic tumors among children and young adults. These neoplasms occurred also in a small series of “male Turner's syndrome,” suggesting that developmental neural defects, hamartomatous growths, and susceptibility to neurogenic tumors are related to one another as expressions of Turner's phenotype.
