Retrorectal tumors are a rare group of neoplasms that occur most commonly in the neonatal and infant population. They vary in presentation, but teratomas are the most common and often present as a protruding mass from the sacrococcygeal region. Immediate surgical resection is indicated when found and coccygectomy is performed to prevent recurrence. When teratomas recur, the patients most often ...

Lymphangiomas of the pancreas are very rare benign tumors of lymphatic origin, accounting for less than 1% of these neoplasms. We report a case of a 55-year-old woman who presented with a palpable mass in the left abdomen. Abdominal sonography and computed tomography showed a lobulated, hypodense mass extending from the left diaphragm to the pelvis, measuring 10 × 25 cm. A preoperative diagnosi...

A mediastinal teratoma is treated by total surgical resection of the mass. Here, we report a case of giant mature c...

On diagnostic imaging, the dilated vagina, along with the compressed uterus, can simulate a mature cystic teratoma with a mural nodule. Herein, we report the case of a newborn girl with congenital hydrocolpos that was caused by an imperforate hymen; the hydrocolpos mimicking a mature cystic teratoma on abdo...
