Article Synopsis
- Ovarian yolk sac tumors (YSTs) are rare tumors, and a study analyzed CT imaging findings of 11 YSTs compared to 18 other ovarian tumors.
- The study found no significant differences in patient age, tumor size, shape, ascites, or metastasis between the two groups (P > 0.05).
- However, YSTs showed significant differences in features like mixed solid-cystic nature, intratumoral hemorrhage, marked enhancement, and dilated intratumoral vessels (P < 0.05), with intratumoral hemorrhage and marked enhancement identified as independent signs of YST.
Background: Yolk sac tumor (YST) is a rare tumor. Familiarity of its radiological characteristics may permit preoperative diagnosis and improve surgical management of patients. However, a detailed description of the imaging features of YST with pathological correlation in particular is scarce.

Materials And Methods: The CT imaging findings of 6 cases of anterior and middle mediastinal EWS/PNETs were reviewed retrospectively. All 6 patients were examined with chest radiographs and CT, and 4 patients underwent isotope bone scans.
