title: [Teratoma of the parotid region: an uncommon disease. Apropos of a case with review of the literature].
abstract: Cervicofacial teratoma is an infrequently reported tumor that is usually diagnosed at birth and is very rarely seen after one year of age. In the case reported, an exceptional finding was a teratoma of the parotid region in an adolescent. A literature review underlines the rarity of the lesion, diagnosis being assisted by radiologic and CT scan imaging.
