Mature teratoma as a perineal mass:Unusal presentation

Abstract

Mature teratomas are well-defined tumors that contain components which arise from three different layers endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm. Although perineal mature teratomas are exceedingly rare, a 37- year-old patient was referred to our hospital with perineal and scrotal mass. The patient underwent thorough resection of the mass. The histological examination of the mass confirmed a mature teratoma.
