Overview

Ovarian germ cell tumor (OGCT) is an unusual type of ovarian cancer in which malignant (cancer) cells develop from the germ (egg) cells of the ovary. Ovarian germ cell tumors are more often in women who are 10 to 29 years old and generally affect just one ovary. Ovarian germ cell tumors are divided into the clinicopathological subtypes such as dysgerminoma (35-50% of OGCT), endodermal sinus tumor (20%), embryonal carcinoma (rare), polyembryoma (rare), choriocarcinoma (rare), teratoma and mixed GCT.

Sign and symptom

There are no obvious symptoms in the early stage. Nonetheless, tumors may be detected by regular gynecologic exams (checkups). Signs of ovarian germ cell tumor are swelling of the abdomen without weight gain in other parts of the body or bleeding from the vagina after menopause.
