Adult-Onset Mixed Germ Cell Tumor Composed Mainly of Yolk Sac Tumor Around the Pineal Gland: A Case Report and Review of the Literature
2019, World NeurosurgeryCitation Excerpt :Previous studies have reported that GCTs are more frequent in Asian countries than in Western countries.3 However, to the best of our knowledge, only 4 detailed descriptions of intracranial YST in those aged >35 years exist.4-7 In these 4 patients, the tumors were located at the basal ganglia, pineal area, thalamus, and anterior third ventricle.
Proton MR spectroscopy and diffusion-weighted imaging of intracranial germ cell tumors: Implications for differentiation from other lesions
2011, European Journal of Radiology ExtraCitation Excerpt :These findings suggest that germinomas and teratomas could be differentiated based on DWI, but teratomas could not be further distinguished. Yolk sac tumors are usually heterogeneous, with foci of calcification and cysts and contrast enhancement [12,16]. In our case of yolk sac tumor, radiological differential diagnosis included: primary CNS lymphoma and other GCTs.
