Abstract

Systemic dissemination of intracranial germ cell tumors (GCTs) occur only in 3% of cases and the common sites are bone, lungs, and lymph nodes. Metastasis to the liver is rare. As far as we could find, only six cases of liver metastasis of intracranial GCTs have been reported so far. We report an adolescent girl who presented with hepatic relapse 2½ years after successful completion of treatment of intracranial GCT. She was treated with chemotherapy and right hepatectomy and is doing well 30 months after treatment for the metastatic disease.
