Overview
The prognosis of teratoma depends on the type of tumor and malignant transformation. Mature teratoma is begnin and has an excellent prognosis compared to immature teratoma which has a favorable prognosis.The 6 year survival rate of patients with mature teratoma is approximately 96%. The overall 5 years survival rate of patient with immature teratoma is 90% and 75% for stage III and IV.Common complications are malignant transformation, rupture, torsion, and hemolytic anemia.
