Dermoid of the nasopharynx.
A case of a cystic polyp of the nasopharynx in a three-year-old Caucasian female is presented. Although cases of teratomas of the nasopharynx have been reported, our literature search revealed only one prior report of a hamartoma. To our knowledge, a lesion with these histological features occurring in the nasopharynx has not been previously reported.
