Abstract
Being of embryonal tissue origin, the teratomas are rare in adults,
typically occurring either in the gonads or in the sacrococcygeal region
in infancy and childhood. We present a case of a teratoma in the lesser
sac of an adult female managed by en-bloc resection with the
infiltrating stomach segment.
