Abstract:
Cervical teratoma is a rare form of teratoma in neonates and is an unusual cause of cervical masses in them. Teratomas are unusual tumors derived from all 3 germs cell layers: endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm, with varying proportions. The cervical teratoma is a rare entity. Its prognosis mostly depends on the risk of neonatal respiratory distress, its extension and potential malignancy. Surgical management must be as complete as possible to avoid recurrences and malignant transformation. We report a case of a cervical immature teratoma in an infant with total excision and cure. No recurrence has been reported. The aim of our study is to review the diagnosis, management and outcomes of congenital cervical teratomas. Cervical teratoma although uncommon should be considered in the differential diagnosis of neck masses in neonates. Teratomas are rare tumors derived from all three germ cell layers affecting the neck in 3% of all cases. An early complete surgical approach to congenital cervical teratomas allows good results with low rates of complication and recurrence.
摘要:
宫颈畸胎瘤是新生儿畸胎瘤的一种罕见形式,是新生儿宫颈肿块的不寻常原因。畸胎瘤是来自所有3个生殖细胞层的不寻常肿瘤:内胚层,中胚层,和外胚层,比例不同。宫颈畸胎瘤是一种罕见的实体。其预后主要取决于新生儿呼吸窘迫的风险,它的延伸和潜在的恶性肿瘤。手术治疗必须尽可能完整,以避免复发和恶性转化。我们报告了一例完全切除和治愈的婴儿宫颈未成熟畸胎瘤。没有复发的报道。我们研究的目的是回顾诊断,先天性宫颈畸胎瘤的治疗和预后.宫颈畸胎瘤虽然不常见,但在新生儿颈部肿块的鉴别诊断中应考虑。畸胎瘤是源自所有三个生殖细胞层的罕见肿瘤,占所有病例的3%。先天性宫颈畸胎瘤的早期完整手术方法可以取得良好的效果,并发症和复发率低。
