title: Intracranial and spinal germinomas occurring four years after spinal cord germinoma--case report.
abstract: Intracranial and thoracic tumors developed in a 31-year-old male 4 years after irradiation therapy for a cervical tumor. He received irradiation for the pineal, suprasellar, and thoracic tumors. All tumors disappeared by neuroradiological imaging after treatment. The previous and present tumors were probably germinomas, possibly with multifocal origins.
