چکیده
It is the object of this paper to present an endocrin-i analysis of five permanently transplantable human testicular tumors maintained in the cheek pouches of cortisone-treated hamsters. Two of the tumors produce chorionic gonadotrophin and rep resent the first reported human neoplasms to be functional in heterologous hosts. The growth characteristics of three of these tumors have been reported (7). The fourth, PITT 100, has only recently been isolated, and its be havior will be described here.
