I had the above type of tumour on my right ovary -which spread to stage 3, of which I am now clear of (after surgery and chemo).

I thought I'd post here to see if anyone has the same thing and would like to know anything.

Thanks,
Isabel

    Hello,

    I encourage you to post your question on the ovarian cancer disucssion board also.

    You can also do a search of the CSN website by entering search terms into the search bar at the top of this page such as "germ cell" or "yolk sack." If you find someone who has discussed this type of cancer, you can contact them through the internal CSN email system.

    Take care and be well,

    Dana

    Hi! I have germ cell/ yolk sack cancer and have a difficult time finding information on it. I would like to know your experiences, as I am going through chemo right now. Thanks, Rachael

    Rachel,
    Can I ask what your symptoms were before you were diagnosed? My gyn thinks I may this as well. Thanks!

    My three year old has a yolk sac tumor also.
    I was just wondering what type of medicine regimen that your doctors have you on? My little girls is recurrent and there is not a lot of information out there. Thanks!
