Abdominal wall mixed malignant germ cell tumor: a case report and review of literature
Abstract
Abdominal wall mass is not uncommon in clinic, but it is very rare that germ cell tumors (GCTs) arise in the abdominal wall. The authors review the case of a 34-year-old female with abdominal wall mixed malignant GCT composed of embryonal carcinoma and teratoma and combine the relative literature to explain why GCTs originate from anterior abdominal wall.
