Summary: This study investigated the clinical features and prognosis of malignant germ cell tumor (mGCT) and prognostic factors for malignant ovarian germ cell tumors (MOGCT) to provide guidance for future treatment.
Summary: This review contributes to the debate on the treatment of adults with these two diseases and promote the creation of broad-based, national, and international trials to advance knowledge in this area and to share the skills between pediatric and adult oncologists as adolescent and young adults (AYA) brain tumor national boards are currently requiring.

Summary: This study evaluated the prognostic impact of lymphadenectomy (lymph node removal) in different stages of malignant germ cell tumors of the ovary.
Summary: This study compared the outcomes of pediatric and adolescent patients with extracranial malignant germ cell tumor (GCT) treated with either carboplatin or cisplatin.
Summary: This study determined if modifying the adult treatment for Germ Cell Tumors by replacing Cisplatin with Carboplatin resulted in a treatment that is less toxic for children.
