Definition
A radiosensitive malignant germ cell tumor that arises from the testis and extragonadal sites (anterior mediastinum and pineal gland) and is characterized by the presence of uniform cells with clear or dense cytoplasm which contains glycogen and a large nucleus which contains one or more nucleoli. The neoplastic germ cells form aggregates separated by fibrous septa. The fibrous septa contain chronic inflammatory cells that are mainly lymphocytes.

Key figures
Each figure carries its unit, period and source; ranks link to "Why this rank?".
No registry-level ancestor: burden figures are published for the mutually exclusive top-level site groups only, and this entity does not descend from one. Global figures (IARC / GLOBOCAN) stay under license review and SEER awaits credentials.
