Abstract
A 2-year perineal swelling of a 4-year-old girl and a 2-month swelling in the abdomen of a 1 year-old boy were found to be endodermal sinus tumours of Teilum. The gonads were normal in both. The histological appearance was typical with epithelial and stromal combinations and glomerulus-like structures called Schiller-Duval bodies. A brief review of the literature on the origin of these tumours is given. The girl is still alive but the boy died 2 days after laparotomy.
