Abstract
Teratomas are neoplasm originating from tot potent cells- developing from more than one germ cell layers-ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm. Primary retroperitoneal teratomas are rare and suprarenal location is extremely rare. They usually present in childhood with non specific symptoms and abdominal lump. Complete surgical excision cures the benign neoplasm but immature teratoma may need adjuvant chemo/radiotherapy.
It needs careful follow up as even mature teratomas may take a malignant course. Here in we discuss a case of Benign cystic teratoma in supra renal location in a 15months old female child.
Key words: Infant, Teratoma, Totipotent, Suprarenal.References
