Abstract
The potential inadequacies of current classifications of germ cell tumors are examined in the light of recent evidence highlighting their high incidence of HCG [human chorionic gonadotropin] and AFP [.alpha.-fetoprotein] production together with the responsible cell types.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
