malignant neoplasms (MNP). The frequency of PNS in MNP ranges from 1 to 20 % according different authors. One the manifestations is acne, which occurs against background neoplasm due hormonal disorders. presented article describes a clinical case patient with mixed germ cell tumor and metastases retroperitoneal lymph nodes. produced human beta-chorionic gonadotropin, led development acne as PNS...

Odontogenic tumors are a heterogeneous group of lesions of diverse clinical behavior and histopathologic types, ranging from hamartomatous lesions to malignancy. Because odontogenic tumors arise from the tissues which make our teeth, they are unique to the jaws, and by extension almost unique to dentistry. Odontogenic tumors, as in normal odontogenesis, are capable of inductive interactions bet...

The histogenesis of ovarian germ cell tumors (11 mature teratomas, three malignant transformations of mature teratomas, two immature teratomas, and four dysgerminomas) was investigated genetically using minisatellite DNA probes 33.15 and 33.6 for person-specific restriction fragment length polymorphism (DNA fingerprint) analysis. The DNA fingerprints of six ovarian teratomas were identical with...

BACKGROUND Extragonadal localization of germ cell tumors (GCTs) is rare; to the best of our knowledge, a location in the soft tissue of the arm has never been previously reported in the literature. CASE PRESENTATION We report the case of a 37-year-old man who presented with a primary malignant mixed non-seminomatous GCT (teratocarcinoma variety) in the right arm, treated by a combination of c...

“Burned out” testicular germ cell tumors are rare, representing involuted primary tumors typically discovered during workup for metastatic disease with associated elevated serum tumor markers. Histologically, a hyalinized scar is seen, often with surrounding intratubular germ cell neoplasia. We report a 24 year-old man who presented with a two-month history of cough, dyspnea, and intermittent t...

background:   although the majority of soft tissue masses are benign, it is important to consider malignancy in differential diagnoses. because most soft tissue sarcomas present as a painless mass, clinicians must watch for signs suggestive of malignancy, including large size, rapid growth, and site deep into the deep fascia.the purpose of this study was to determine the relative prevalence acc...
