Abstract

Congenital cervical teratoma is an extremely rare abnormality. Neonatal teratomas occur in about 1:20 000-40 000 live births and only 5% of them are located in the region of the neck. Although mostly benign, they are associated with a high mortality rate due to respiratory distress and require immediate surgical excision. Prenatal sonography is good at identifying the presence of tumors. Early diagnosis of a cervical teratoma can result in various obstetric measures, as far as abortion in the event of a hopeless prognosis. We present a congenital cervical teratoma case diagnosed in the first trimester to discuss prenatal diagnosis, perinatal and neonatal outcomes and the management strategies.

Özet

Konjenital servikal teratom son derece nadir görülen bir anomalidir. Neonatal teratomlar tüm canlı doğumların 1:20 000-40 000’inde görülürler ve bunların sadece %5’i boyun bölgesindedir. Çoğunlukla benign olmalarına rağmen solunum yetmezliği ve acil cerrahi eksizyon ihtiyacı nedeniyle mortalite oranları yüksektir. Tümör tanısında prenatal ultrasonografi oldukça iyidir. Erken tanı prognozu umutsuz olanlarda, düşük dahil çeşitli obstetrik önlemlerin alınmasına imkan tanır. Biz bu makalede ilk trimesterde tanısı konan bir konjenital servikal teratom vakasını sunduk ve tedavi stratejilerini tartıştık.
