ABSTRACT
A 3-year-old girl with rapidly progressive proptosis had an unusual malignant germ cell tumor of the orbit identified as an endodermal sinus tumor. The endodermal sinus tumor is a malignant germ cell neoplasm that usually arises in gonads, but on rare ocassion ocurrs in extragonadal locations. Histologic examination revealed pseudo papillary pattern that on occasion created peculiar organoid structure similar to the glomeruli(Shiller-Dubal bodies). The patient was treated with exenteration of left orbit and three drug chemotherapy. The present case is of particular interest because of the rarity of extragonadal endodermal sinus tumor.
