Review Multidisciplinary management of malignant ovarian germ cell tumours



Abstract

Objectives

Malignant ovarian germ cell tumours (MOGCT) are rare cancers of young women. Limited prospective trials exist from which evidence-based management can be developed. This review summarizes the available literature concerning MOGT in order to provide the clinician with information relevant to their multidisciplinary management.

Research Highlights

►Ovarian germ cell tumours are highly curable.
►Treatment options are limited for recurrent and residual tumours. ►Long term results suggest no significant impact on fertility and menstrual function.
