Neonatal thoracic germ cell tumor with rare association of aortic aneurysms and arteriovenous malformation - A case report
Year: 2026
Type: article
Study design: Case Report
Abstract: Intrathoracic germ cell tumors in neonates are unusual, possessing a diagnostic challenge, especially when associated with vascular anomalies such as spinal arteriovenous malformation and aneurysms of the descending thoracic aorta. The use of computed tomography not only helps in diagnosis but also in understanding the extent and invasion of the lesion with associated complications and other concurrent pathologies, which further aids in management. This case report highlights a complex neonatal thoracic pathology requiring detailed cross-sectional imaging for accurate diagnosis and management.
