Overview
Ovarian germ cell tumor may be classified into 7 subtypes based on histology.[1]
Classification
Cellular classification of ovarian germ cell tumors The following histologic subtypes have been described.[1]
- Dysgerminoma
- Other germ cell tumors:
- Endodermal sinus tumor (rare subtypes are hepatoid and intestinal)
- Embryonal carcinoma
- Polyembryoma
- Choriocarcinoma
- Teratoma:
- Immature
- Mature:
- Solid
- Cystic:
- Dermoid cyst (mature cystic teratoma)
- Dermoid cyst with malignant transformation
- Monodermal and highly specialized:
- Struma ovarii
- Carcinoid
- Others (e.g., malignant neuroectodermal and ependymoma)
- Mixed forms
