Mature cystic teratoma is one of the most common tumors of the ovaries, testis, mediastinum, and retroperitoneum; however, secondary retroperitoneum lesions are rare entities in adults. We report a case of a 22-year-old female who was previously diagnosed with a mature teratoma of left ovarian was hospitalized due to dull abdominal pain in right hypochondria. Radiological evaluation revealed a mass in the right upper abdominal and flank region with an extension from the posterior aspect of the duodenum, composed of greasy and cystic elements. A tumor was resected through the Kocher's laparotomy and the pathology report confirmed the diagnosis of a mature cystic teratoma with no evidence of malignancy or immature components. Keywords: Secondary retroperitoneal teratoma, Mature cystic teratoma |
