Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Public Health - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Malignant germ cell tumours of ovary comprise less than 5% of all ovarian neoplasms. Malignant mixed germ cell tumours are still rare. Most common combination in mixed germ cell tumours is that of Dysgerminoma & yolk sac tumour. Mixed tumours showing three germ cell components and four or five germ cell components are still rare. Here we report two cases of Malignant mixed germ cell tumours with a histologic combination of Immature teratoma, Dysgerminoma & Yolk sac tumour. Review of literature also showed such type of combination.
