Abstract
In recent years a lot of attention has been paid to the research of the clinical course and timely diagnosis of the growing teratoma syndrome. Late diagnosis makes surgery (which is the main treatment for the patients) impossible. The literature review presents the main diagnostic criteria of the syndrome. Differential diagnosis includes peritoneal gliomatosis and malignant germ cell tumors. A comprehensive evaluation is of great importance for the correct diagnosis and timely treatment.
