Primary germ cell tumors involving midline of the anterior neck are
extremely rare. Here we report a 68-year-old male who was operated
due to a mass lesion in the anterior neck with infiltration of the
isthmus of the thyroid gland. Histopathological examination revealed
a germ cell tumor with extragonadal localization in the anterior neck
infiltrating the isthmus of the thyroid gland.
