I think elliptical galaxies are the galaxies you are referring to. Scientist normally describe them as a flatted disk shape. These galaxies contain mainly older stars.

Galaxies are classified by their shape what are they called?
There are three types of galaxies, all of which are the same, with the exception of their shapes. There are the Elliptical galaxies (football-shaped) the Spiral galaxies (like the Milky way; vortex-shaped) and Irregular galaxies (all shapes other than spiral and football shaped).
What is an egg-shaped three-dimensional shape called?

Is are galaxy flat?
No, galaxies are three dimensional. Do you mean are there galaxies without a bulge in the center? That answer is yes. Some are shaped like balls, some have irregular shapes, and the rest (which is really most of them) are shaped like discs. Almost all disc-shaped galaxies have a bulge in them, but there are a few that do not have any bulge at all- they are flat discs. Just like a CD.
