Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis typically presents in postmenarchal patients with cyclic and acyclic pelvic pain. However, there are reports of endometriosis in premenarchal patients.
CASE: We report a 10-year-old individual with 46,XY difference of sex development who was found to have endometriosis at the time of laparoscopic gonadectomy for gonadoblastoma.
CONCLUSIONS: Although rare, endometriosis can occur in 46,XY individuals prior to puberty, highlighting the complex origin of the disease.
