An extragonadal germ cell tumor (EGGCT) is by definition a germ cell neoplasm displaying one of the histologies associated with gonadal origin, but located outside of the gonads. This specific clinical entity was first described in the 19th century [2, 3]....
متن کاملCase report: Extragonadal mixed germ cell tumor in the thigh
Germ cell tumors (GCTs) in males predominantly arise from testicular tissue, but 2e5% arise in extragonadal sites with no evidence of a primary testicular tumor, thus called extragonadal germ cell tumors (EGCTs). They mostly arise in the mid-axis of the body; 50e70% in the mediastinum, 30e40% in the retroperitoneal space, and fewer arise in the pineal gland and the suprasellar region. Few occur...
متن کاملKlinefelter Syndrome with Poor Risk Extragonadal Germ Cell Tumor
Germ cell tumors are the most common malignancy in men aged 15-35 years old, with a small percentage presenting in an extragonadal location. These tumors are seldom identified in the gastrointestinal tract. There is increased risk of extragonadal germ cell tumors (EGCT) in men with Klinefelter syndrome (KS). We report a rare case of a 37-year-old male with KS and EGCT discovered in the duodenum...
