Popis: Teratomatous Tumors are interesting because of their obscure origin, bizarre microscopic appearance, and sometimes unpredictable behavior. Because they occur not infrequently in children, the clinician should be aware of their clinical features, natural history, pathology, and principles of treatment. In an attempt to document some of these features further, the clinical and pathologic aspects of 58 cases of teratomas in children seen at the Mayo Clinic during a 31-yr period were reviewed.
