The teratomas are derived neoplasms of totipotent embryonic cells and are extremely rare.We reported a Renal tumor on the right in a 36 years old patient, incidentally detected by imaging exams as a large and complex cystic lesion. Radical nephrectomy was performed with histopathological diagnosis of mature teratoma.
