:The stem cells which are produced by teratocarcinoma were used for medicinal purposes, but only in a few experiments. Per example, a teratoma producing nerval tissue helped restore the brain of a man suffering a stroke.
Does anyone have a reference to substantiate this? It sounds a bit tall to me; stem cells are being considered for Parkinson's, but AFAIK not for CVAs. JFW | T@lk 10:25, 10 Oct 2004 (UTC)
thread_title: Fact check

message: I removed the following list item because it hints at a larger table, but has only one entry from the bottom of that table, which just looks a bit odd sitting by itself out there. It's kind of like saying, "1% of teratomas are gastric", which is sort of trivia without information about that other 99%. Really the solution is to have a complete table of teratoma incidence by location, but until that becomes available, I've moved the graf here.Collabi 19:42, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

text: Which picture?  :File:Mature cystic teratoma of ovary.jpg (used in the article now) is by a pathologist whose website has many equally informative photos.  Also, I have seen similar photos in pathology textbooks and elsewhere.  --Una Smith (talk) 22:15, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Possible Reference Article

message: Does anyone have more information on this? It's far outside of my expertise, but as a reader I am fascinated by this and think it could (maybe?) be expanded on in the article by someone more knowledgeable. 174.17.180.214 (talk) 10:49, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
