terato-comb. form

Stress is usually determined by a subsequent element and vowels may be reduced accordingly. Some degree of stress is often maintained on the first syllable. If the subsequent element is an existing word, it is likely to retain its original stress pattern, e.g. teratocarcinoma n. Brit.

/ˌtɛrətə(ʊ)kɑːsᵻˈnəʊmə/,

/ˌtɛrətə(ʊ)kɑːsnˈəʊmə/, U.S.

/ˌtɛrədoʊˌkɑrsəˈnoʊmə/.

Origin: A borrowing from Greek. Etymon: Greek τερατο-.

Etymology: < ancient Greek τερατο-, combining form (in e.g. τερατοσκόπος soothsayer, diviner: see teratoscopy n.) of τέρας , τερατ- monster (see terata n.); compare -o- connective.Compare post-classical Latin terato-, French terato-.

ˌteratocarciˈnoma n. Pathology a malignant teratoma containing carcinomatous elements, occurring chiefly in the testis.

1946 Friedman & Moore in Mil. Surgeon XCIX. 573 A new term, ‘teratocarcinoma’, is proposed for the large group of pleomorphic tumours in which both differentiated teratoid structures and histologically malignant elements were present.

1958 Jrnl. Amer. Med. Assoc. 28 June 1066/2 A testicular teratocarcinoma occurring in a 35-year-old man was treated initially by surgery.

1975 Nature 6 Nov. 12/1 Teratomas and teratocarcinomas are rare tumours which arise in the gonads, and contain a whole variety of differentiated tissues of ectodermal, mesodermal and endodermal origin (such as skin, nerve, muscle, cartilage, gut and lung), mixed together in a disorganised mass.

1979 Sci. Amer. Apr. 87/1 As long as the tumors contain embryonal carcinoma cells they continue to grow; such tumors are malignant and are referred to as teratocarcinomas.
