Definition: Teratomas are the most common germ cell tumor (GCT) of the ovary and include several types with a range of clinical behavior. As in testicular teratomas, they may be benign, malignant or a component of a mixed GCT.
In the testis, data support separate pathogeneses for prepubertal and postpubertal teratomas, with derivation of the former from a nontransformed germ cell and the latter from differentiation of a nonteratomatous, malignant GCT.
The absence of cytogenetic abnormalities (including isochromosome 12p (i(12p)) in mature ovarian teratomas suggests that they may be analogous to prepubertal testicular teratomas.
