Overview
Ovarian germ cell tumor may be benign or malignant. Each category subclassified to different types based on histologic features.
Classification
Ovarian germ cell tumor may be classified into two subtypes of benign and malignant tumors. Benign tumors are comprised of only teratoma, however, the malignant germ cell tumors may be classified to different types according to the histologic features.
- Teratoma[1]
- Mature cystic teratomas (dermoid cysts)
- Immature teratomas
- Monodermal teratomas
- Struma ovarii
- Carcinoid tumors
- Neural tumors
- Dysgerminoma
- Yolk sac tumor
- Mixed germ cell tumors
- Other rare ovarian germ cell tumors
- Pure embryonal carcinoma
- Non-gestational choriocarcinoma
- Pure embryoma
