Background: Malignant dysgerminomas are infrequently reported ovarian neoplasms in animals, especially in exotic pets (non-traditional companion animals [NTCAs]). In the few published case reports on reptilian species, examples are primarily postmortem without antemortem (clinical) assessment.
Patient Presentation: An adult, 13-year-old, spayed female inland bearded dragon (Pogona vitticeps) presented with lethargy, a right-sided head tilt, unilateral exophthalmos and ventrotemporal strabismus on the right eye.

Article Synopsis
- Gonadoblastoma is a rare tumor made up of sex cord and primitive germ cells, mainly found in individuals with 46,XY gonadal dysgenesis, but can also occur in those with a 46,XX karyotype.
- A case study describes a 14-year-old girl with an uncommon virilizing ovarian tumor, leading to the removal of both ovaries and tubes, which was confirmed as bilateral gonadoblastoma with additional dysgerminoma on one side.
- It's important to consider malignant gonadal tumors in patients with 46,XX karyotype and virilization, and a gonadal biopsy may be necessary even if tests seem normal.
Paraneoplastic systemic lupus erythematosus associated with dysgerminoma: a case report and literature review.

Internal Medicine Division, Soroka Univerity Medical Center, Beer-Sheva, Israel.
Article Synopsis
- Rheumatic paraneoplastic syndromes are uncommon but can indicate hidden cancers, often appearing within two years before a cancer diagnosis.
- An 18-year-old female with no prior health issues developed morning stiffness and a rash, leading to a diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and later the discovery of a dysgerminoma tumor.
- After surgery and chemotherapy for the tumor, her SLE symptoms went into remission, highlighting the need for doctors to consider cancer when patients show unexplained lupus symptoms.
