Abstract
The coexistence of endometriosis and Turner's syndrome is extremely rare, and therefore poses certain questions on the mechanisms of endometriosis. We present a case of a 27-year-old woman with Turner's syndrome [(46, X(x) (q10); 45X], primary amenorrhea and menopausal hormonal profile in which peritoneal endometriosis was revealed laparoscopically.
