18 Oct 2011

Abstract excerpt

We review the current knowledge on human yolk sac tumours (YSTs) 50 years after their initial description. Their complex nomenclature and histogenesis stress the fact that they are not a discrete entity, but represent a multifaceted group of neoplasms, for which the term primitive endodermal tumours would be more appropriate, accounting for their capacity to differentiate into various extraembryonal and somatic...
