Abstract
- Endodermal sinus tumors(EST) have also been referred to as "yolk sac tumors" because they are derived from the primitive yolk sac. These lesions are the third most frequent malignant germ-cell tumors of the ovary. Recent advances in treating the endodermal sinus tumor of the ovary with the combination chemotherapy result in improvement of the prognosis. We had experienced a case of the endodermal sinus tumor of 15 year old woman. We report this case with a brief review of literatures.
