  Clinically the patient presents with a testicular mass, testicular atrophy, testicular pain and back pain following metastasis to the vertebra. Investigation findings include high level of alkaline phosphatase, elevated human chorionic gonadotropin. [differencebetween.com]

  On exam, the physician discovers a hard, testicular mass on the right testis. On further questioning, the patient remarks that he first noticed it 6 months ago, but did not think he needed to have it examined since it wasn't painful. [medbullets.com]

Pathophysiology: Teratomas are made up of a variety of parenchymal cell types representative of more than a single germ layer, usually all 3. Arising from totipotential cells, these tumors typically are midline or para-axial. [csh.org.tw]

Pathophysiology [ edit ] Teratomas belong to a class of tumors known as nonseminomatous germ cell tumor (N.S.G.C.T.). All tumors of this class are the result of abnormal development of pluripotent cells: germ cells and embryonal cells. [en.wikipedia.org]
