DESCRIPTION

Dysgerminomas are a type of ovarian tumour which are developed from the germinal tissue and have a frequency of approximately 2% of all ovarian cancers. We report a case of a 40 years old female, which was admitted with abdominal pain and pollakiuria installed approximately 2 months ago. The particularity of the case lies in the late onset of the disease, compared to epidemiologic data, as well as in the immunohistochemical reactions, especially the negative PLAP reaction and positive CD30 reaction.
