Overview

In USA, the age-adjusted incidence of malignant ovarian germ cell tumor is 0.41 per 100,000 women. Incidence of these tumors increases from 5 years of age, although it may be present during infancy, and this increase continues to peak between the age of 15 to 19 years which is approximately 1.2 per 100,000 women. Another peak incidence of these tumors has been reported among those aged 65 years old or older where teratoma is the most common type observed. The incidence is higher among non-white ethnicity (other than black, especially Hispanic and Asians) followed by white and black individuals. Females are more commonly affected by germ cell tumors than males. These tumors also account for a greater proportion of ovarian tumors in the Asia and Africa.

Age

Mature teratoma

  • Patients of all age groups may develop mature teratoma. However, they tend to present between 20 to 30 years of age at a greater extent.[14]

Immature teratoma

  • Immature teratoma tends to affect younger patient than mature teratomas (usually the first 2 decades of life).[15]

Dysgerminoma

  • Dysgerminoma commonly affects individuals younger than 30 years of age in 85% of cases.[9]
  • The median age at the time of diagnosis is approximately 19 to 23 years, although it may happen at any age.[16]
  • The tumor is uncommon prepubertal or postmenopausal.

Yolk sac tumor

  • They are most common in women in the second and third decades of life and rarely happens after the age 40.[17]

Embryonal carcinoma

  • They affect primarily children and young adults.[16]
