Abstract
Growing teratoma syndrome is a rare condition seen in non seminomatous germ cell tumor after completion of chemotherapy. Ectodermal, mesodermal and endodermal differentiation is commonly seen in mature teratoma. neuroendocrine differentiation in a metastatic deposit of mature teratoma is rarely reported. We are presenting a case of neuroendocrine differentiation in a long standing metastatic deposit of a mature teratoma.
期刊介绍:
The journal will cover studies related to pathology including morbid anatomy, surgical pathology, clinical pathology, diagnostic cytopathology including gynecologic cytology and aspiration cytology, hematology including immuno-hematology and medical microbiology. The journal gives preference to clinically oriented studies over experimental and animal studies. The Journal would publish peer-reviewed original research papers, case reports, systematic reviews, meta-analysis, letters to the editor and brief communications. Review articles on current topics usually are invited by the editor.
