Abstract

Energy needs of children are high, hence, malnutrition adversely affects body functions of children. Supportive therapy must be starter early in order to prevent weight loss, morbidity and mortality. Malignancies are frequent among the etiology of malnutrition. Considering the coexistence of malnutrition and childhood cancers, early diagnosis is essential. In this study, we aimed to present an adolescent patient with acute malnutrition diagnosed as non-germinoma.
