Malignant gastric teratoma: case report.
Gastric teratomas are rare and usually benign. A 4 month old boy presented with an abdominal mass and computed tomographic and ultrasound examination demonstrated a large multi-loculated tumour which was totally excised. The pathological diagnosis was of a malignant gastric teratoma and 12-month follow-up was uneventful.
