The Solid Pattern of Postpubertal Pure Yolk Sac Tumor: A Seminoma Mimicker. A Dangerous Pitfall - A Case Report and Literature Review

A case of rare pure postpubertal Yolk Sac Tumor with a predominant solid pattern, which mimicked a seminoma, is presented.However, upon closer examination of the morphology and immunohistochemical staining, the tumor was distinguishable as a YST due to the presence of hyaline globules, microcysts, and AFP expression in certain areas
