Abstract

Germ celled tumors frequently localize in anterior mediastinum. In this study we presented two germ cell tumors with different localization and huge size. We discussed two cases with germ cell tumors operated in our clinic together with literature findings. Chest x-ray, computerized tomography (CT) and transthorasic tru-cut biopsy were used for diagnosis. The huge intratorasic teratomas are rarely seen and surgical full resection is the most important factor in survival. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
