Hello, how is teratoma treated?

Patient's question:

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the recurrence of immature teratoma is still primarily treated with surgical resection, supplemented by effective combination chemotherapy. Recurrent tumors are often heterogeneous masses that widely spread within the abdominal and pelvic cavities. Large or medium-sized tumors located in the liver or between the liver and diaphragm appear challenging to surgically remove from an external perspective, but do not easily give up, as enucleation of the tumor is still feasible. If the adhesions are severe and complete resection is not possible, a small amount of tumor tissue can be left behind, and postoperative chemotherapy can still yield good results.
