title: [Terminology and chemotherapy of the so-called endodermal sinus tumor].
abstract: In addition to a discussion on the histogenetic, terminological and clinical problems concerning the so called endodermal sinus tumor a typical case in a far advanced stage is reported. Chemotherapy with vincristine and adriblastine was not able to influence the deleterious course of desease. Anyhow, since little is known about the effect of chemotherapy on the so called endodermal sinus tumor, this report might be of advantage.
