After completion of fertility, residual ovary should be taken out. Incidence of ovarian cancer gets higher with age. Screening method are unreliable. Germ Cell Tumors of the Ovary Incidence: less than %5 of all ovarian neoplasm. Age: the first and second decade Usually unilateral FSS in Germ Cell Tumors of the Ovary 1978 Forney first reported a case of successful pregnancy in a 18 year-old with EST of ovary.

Treatment of Malignant Ovarian Germ Cell Tumors With Preservation of Fertility A Report of 28 Cases / Cancer 42, 1152-1160 (1978) Tumor was confined to one ovary in all cases. All patients were taken chemotherapy except two with stage I immature teratoma. More than 5 years survival in 13 cases (59.1%) 7 of 12 married patients, became pregnant, all had term delivery.
