Abstract
Androgen insensitivity syndrome cases have an increased risk of developing testicular cancer due to many factors such as mutations, hormonal disturbances involving gonadotropins and cryptorchidism. However, malignant germ cell tumor is relatively rarely found compared to those seen in other types of intersex. Recently, the authors experienced a case of malignant mixed germ cell tumor with lymph node metastasis and chemotherapy resistance which was developed in a 31-year-old patient with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome.
