Abstract:
Central nervous system germ cell tumours are mysterious tumours, which are common in young male adults in eastern Asia, and include germinoma, mature and immature teratoma, teratoma with malignant transformation, yolk sac tumour, embryonal carcinoma, choriocarcinoma, and mixed tumours of these components. The aetiological mechanism why they mostly develop in the pineal and neurohypophyseal region is still unknown. Their treatment is also a challenge; surgery is demanding, and sometimes biopsy would be preferred. Radiotherapy is effective, but its dose and field would be better reduced for youn

Abstract:
Tumours of the testis are uncommon and are usually germ cell tumours. They present most often as a scrotal mass in a young man, and are the most frequent malignant tumour in this age group. The incidence has risen over recent decades and is higher in Western Europe. A history of testicular maldescent is a significant risk factor. About 50% are pure seminoma; the remainder non-seminomas may have a single but more usually a mixed histology. Non-seminomas are all called teratoma in the British system. Metastasis readily occurs to paraaortic lymph nodes or the lungs, and some patients present with

Abstract:
Testicular germ cell tumours (GCTs) represent the most common solid malignancy of young men aged 15–40 years. The disease is rising in incidence. Germ cell tumours are best divided into those with pure seminoma and non-seminoma (NSGCT) histology. While cryptorchidism is clearly established as a risk factor, the pathogenesis of testicular cancer remains unknown. Familial studies and molecular analyses suggest an association to genetic alterations. Most testicular cancer patients present a primary tumour in the testis. Diagnostic examinations include testis palpation and ultrasound, and measurem

Renal cancer has high propensity for systemic spread, largely mediated by overexpression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Treatments include surgery, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy. Wilms tumour, a childhood malignancy of the kidney, warrants specialist paediatric oncology management to provide expertise in its unique pathology, staging, and treatment, often with surgery and chemotherapy.

Abstract:
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (PNSTs) are soft tissue sarcomas arising from a peripheral nerve or a pre-existing benign nerve sheath tumor or are sarcomas with features of Schwann-cell differentiation. Differentiating between benign and malignant PNSTs can be challenging. The chapter begins with a case example and then discusses assessment, investigations (including imaging), and diagnosis of malignant PNSTs, as well as the steps involved in decision-making about management of a malignant PNST.

Abstract:
The standard management for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is a combination of aggressive debulking surgery with residual tumor of less than 1 cm and platinum-based chemotherapy. However, a high percentage of patients experience disease recurrence. Extensive efforts to find new therapeutic options have been made, albeit cancer cells develop drug resistance and malignant progression occurs. Novel therapeutic strategies are needed to enhance progression-free survival and overall survival of patients with advanced EOC. Several preclinical and clinical studies investigated feasibility and efficac

Abstract:
Malignant brain tumors are devastating, and increased survival requires new therapeutic modalities. Metabolic dysregulation results in an increased need for glucose in tumor cells, suggesting that reduced tumor growth could be achieved with decreased glucose availability either through pharmacological means or use of a high-fat, low-carbohydrate ketogenic diet (KD). KD provides increased blood ketones to support energy needs of normal tissues and has been shown to reduce tumor growth, angiogenesis, inflammation, peritumoral edema, migration, and invasion. Furthermore, this diet can enhance the

Abstract:
Pineal region tumors can include a variety of histologies including pineal parenchymal tumor, germ cell tumor, glial tumor, metastasis and meningioma. The workup for pineal region tumors includes standard magnetic resonance imaging for anatomic imaging, as well as cerebrospinal fluid markers to assess for certain germ cell tumors. Cerebrospinal fluid diversion may be necessary if patients present with hydrocephalus. If surgical resection is indicated based on the suspected diagnosis, magnetic resonance venogram is an important study that influences the surgical trajectory. This chapter reviews

Abstract:
The term “cancer” encompasses a large heterogeneous group of diseases that involve uncontrolled cell growth, division, and survival, culminating in local invasion and/or distant metastases. Cancer is fundamentally a genetic disease at the cellular level. Tumors occur because clones of abnormal cells acquire multiple lesions in DNA, nearly always involving mutations, chromosomal rearrangements, and extensive alteration of the epigenome. Up to 10% of cancers also involve inherited germline mutations that are moderately to highly penetrant. Cancers begin as localized growths or premalignant lesio
