Extra-gonadal mature teratoma: a case report of retroperitoneal location
with a literature review
Abstract
Extra-gonadal mature teratoma is a rare benign tumor occurring rarely in
adults. The retroperitoneal localization constitutes less than 4%.
Treatment consists of surgical resection. Histological examination is
essential for definitive diagnosis. We reported an unusual case of
mature retroperitoneal teratoma discovered in a young man with abdominal
pain.
