==Mixed germ cell tumour== | |||
*60% of GCTs are mixed. | |||
Common combinations: | |||
# Teratoma + embryonal carcinoma + endodermal sinus tumour (yolk sac tumour) (TEE). | |||
# Seminoma + embryonal (SE). | |||
# Teratoma + embryonal +(TE). | |||
Memory device: ''TEE'' + all combinations have embryonal carcinoma. | |||
===Microscopic=== | |||
Features: | |||
*Depends on components. | |||
Notes: | |||
*If one cannot identify it... it is probably yolk sac as this has so many different patterns. | |||
