title: Mediastinal non-seminomatous germ cell tumours: their association with non-germ cell malignancies.
abstract: Mediastinal non-seminomatous germ cell tumors are unique tumors in that they are associated with both sarcomatous and hematologic neoplasms. This paper relates our experience at Indiana University with these tumors, and discusses the possible mechanisms of their occurrence, especially with respect to the hematologic neoplasms.
