Germinoma pineocytoma higher control rates (100%), neither nor death occurred treatment. syncytiotrophoblastic giant cells (STGC) has been thought to have intermediate prognosis. Two our partial another progression. Malignant germ cell pineoblastoma unfavorable responses prognosis, both being 50%. Gamma initial treatment three without histological diagnosis, one two were obtained. is expected be effective novel approach tumors, not only adjuvant but also
