YOLK SAC TUMOR OF VAGINA
Malignant germ-cell tumors (MGCT) are rare tumors of childhood accounting for less than 3% of pediatric malignancies. Endodermal sinus tumor (EST) forms the most common histologic subtype of MGCT. The vagina is an extremely rare site for GCTs. An 8-month-old female was admitted with a short history of vaginal bleeding, and a mass protruding from the vagina. She was pale and a mass was palpab...
متن کاملSurface morphology of the human yolk sac: endoderm and mesothelium.
The yolk sac of human embryos from the 5th to 7th week of gestation was first revealed under the scanning electron microscope (SEM) with complementary observations under the transmission electron microscope (TEM). The inner and outer surfaces of the human yolk sac basically showed profiles similar to those of other mammalian yolk sacs reported by previous workers. The free surface of the endode...
متن کاملEvidence that insulin is imprinted in the human yolk sac.
Allelic variation in the size of the insulin (INS) variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) correlates with the expression of both INS in the pancreas and thymus and IGF2 (the gene downstream of INS) in the placenta. In addition, the shorter, class I alleles are associated with type 1 diabetes, whereas the longer, class III alleles are associated with type 2 diabetes, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCO...
متن کاملDifferentiation of Mouse Yolk Sac Cells to Erythroid Cells in The Presence of Erythropoietin
Purpose: Yolk sac hematopoietic stem cells (YS-HSC) have two dominant characteristices: a larger reproductive capacity and the absence of the expression of MHC associated antigens. Therefore, these cells are promising candidates for transplantation, cell therapy and gene manipulation. There are controversial reports on the effects of erythropoietin (EPO) on the differentiation of yolk sac cells...
