Pediatric germ cell tumors represent a rare but biologically diverse group of neoplasms arising from pluripotent primordial germ cells. The 2022 edition of the WHO Classification of Pediatric Tumors introduced the first organ independent classification of germ cell tumors, reflecting advances in molecular biology, histopathology, and clinical practice. This review highlights the key changes, including the refined distinctions between the different subtypes. These updates enhance diagnostic accuracy and provide a framework for understanding age-dependent differences in tumor biology and behavior. Emphasis is placed on integrating the new classification into multidisciplinary care, particularly in addressing diagnostic challenges in pre- and post-pubertal-type germ cell tumors. By bridging the gap between histopathology and oncology, the updated classification represents a pivotal step forward in improving outcomes for children with germ cell tumors.
期刊介绍：
Manuscripts of original studies reinforcing the evidence base of modern diagnostic pathology, using immunocytochemical, molecular and ultrastructural techniques, will be welcomed. In addition, papers on critical evaluation of diagnostic criteria but also broadsheets and guidelines with a solid evidence base will be considered. Consideration will also be given to reports of work in other fields relevant to the understanding of human pathology as well as manuscripts on the application of new methods and techniques in pathology. Submission of purely experimental articles is discouraged but manuscripts on experimental work applicable to diagnostic pathology are welcomed. Biomarker studies are welcomed but need to abide by strict rules (e.g. REMARK) of adequate sample size and relevant marker choice. Single marker studies on limited patient series without validated application will as a rule not be considered. Case reports will only be considered when they provide substantial new information with an impact on understanding disease or diagnostic practice.
