Abstract
X chromosome aneuploidy has been identified as a potential risk factor for the development of neuroblastic tumors. We report a case of a 4-year-old girl with a 45,X karyotype incidentally discovered to have a large ganglioneuroblastoma on initial screening ultrasound. The incidence of these tumors in girls with Turner syndrome as well as their possible relationship to recombinant human growth hormone treatment is discussed.
