| Abstract | Testicular tumors are rare in children but highly treatable and usually curable. Seminomas are extremely rare in prepubertal children. Among nonseminomatous germ cell tumors, the most common are teratomas and yolk sac tumors. Mixed germ cell tumor (MGCT) contains more than one germ cell component. MGCT is very rare in prepubertal age group. Here, we are presenting a case of MGCT in a newborn child with a review of literature. It is the first reported case in the world literature. |
