Abstrakt: Ovarian teratoma or dermoid cyst is usually a benign ovarian tumour composed of a combination of tissues including epithelia, hair, teeth, bone fragments, thyroidal tissue, sebum, etc. This paper presents the case of a 4-yearold girl admitted in emergency with clinical signs suggesting the onset of acute appendicitis. The symptomatology, however, was the result of presence of right ovarian teratoma with torsion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
