Abstract excerpt
Although ovarian monodermal teratomas, including struma ovarii and carcinoids, are closely associated with mature teratomas, their genetic basis is poorly understood. A series of mature and monodermal ovarian teratomas were analyzed by short tandem repeat genotyping to evaluate their genetic zygosity and its associations. Informative DNA genotyping data were obtained for ten mature teratomas, six struma ovarii,...
