Mediastinal non-seminomatous germ cell tumors are unique tumors in that the y are associated with both sarcomatous and hematologic neoplasms. This pape r relates our experience at Indiana University with these tumors, and discu sses the possible mechanisms of their occurrence, especially with respect t o the hematologic neoplasms.
