The laboratory findings associated with ovarian germ cell tumor are the following: Serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), CA-125, and Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP).
An elevated concentration [[Alpha-fetoprotein|a-fetoprotein]] ([[Alpha-fetoprotein|AFP]]) and [[Human chorionic gonadotrophin|b-human chorionic gonadotrophin]] (b-hCG) are diagnostic of malignant ovarian germ cell tumors.

Overview

An elevated concentration a-fetoprotein (AFP) and b-human chorionic gonadotrophin (b-hCG) are diagnostic of malignant ovarian germ cell tumors.

Ovarian germ cell tumor Laboratory Findings

An elevated concentration a-fetoprotein (AFP) and b-human chorionic gonadotrophin (b-hCG) are diagnostic of malignant ovarian germ cell tumors.[1]

The tumor marker associated with ovarian germ cell tumor subtypes are as follows:[2]

Ovarian germ cell tumor subtype Tumor markers expressed
Dysgerminoma
Embryonal carcinoma
Endodermal sinus tumor or yolk sac tumors
Polyembryoma
Teratoma
Choriocarcinoma

Mature teratoma

Immature teratoma

  • Immature teratoma is associated with elevated AFP in one third of the cases.[5]

Dysgerminoma

Embryonal carcinoma

Endodermal sinus tumor

Polyembryoma

Non-gestational choriocarcinoma
