title: [Teratomas in the cervical region].
abstract: Teratomas in the cervical region have rarely been observed in infants. There are only a small number of reports in the literature of teratomas in this region. The complication rate after sugical removal of such a tumour is relatively high. A case report is presented of a newborn with a cervical teratoma which was removed without serious sequelae and with acceptable cosmetic and functional results.
