creepy neto huhuA teratoma is a tumor made up of several different types of tissue, such as hair, muscle, or bone. They typically form in the ovaries, testicles, or tailbone and less commonly in other areas. Symptoms may be minimal if the tumor is small.
What is the cause of a teratoma?
They occur most often in the testes. These types of cells have the ability to rapidly spread to other parts of the body. When these cells are mixed with an otherwise benign type of tumor (mature teratoma), the presence of embryonal carcinoma cells will causeit to become malignant (cancerous).
