Risk factors of Ovarian germ cell tumors (Dysgerminoma):
- Ovarian germ cell tumors tend to affect individuals with gonadal dysgenesis at a greater extent.[7]
- Maternal hormonal factors are another things associated with the increased risk of the development of ovarian germ cell tumors in daughters. These factors include:[8][9][10]
- Maternal use of exogenous hormones (ie, supportive hormones or oral contraceptives)
- Maternal high body mass index
- Other reproductive factors also has been observed to be associated with the development of these tumors such as:
- Parity
- Oral contraceptive use
- Age at first and last births
Mature teratoma
- Common risk factors in the malignant transformation of mature teratoma include:
Dysgerminoma
- Common risk factors in the development of dysgerminoma are gonadal dysgenesis, androgen insensitivity syndrome and gonadoblastoma.[13]
Risk factors of Testicular germ cell tumors (Seminoma):
Common risk factors in testicular seminoma include:[14][15][16][17][18][19][20]
Common Risk Factors
- Caucasian race
- Undescended testicle
- Family history of testicular cancer
- Personal history of testicular cancer (previous tumor in contralateral testis)
- Klinefelter syndrome
- Impaired spermatogenesis
- Hypospadias
- Testicular microlithiasis
- Testicular dysgenesis
Less Common Risk Factors
- Infections such as HIV, orchitis
- History of trauma
- Organ transplant immunosuppression
- Canabis exposure
