title: Immature gastric teratoma in an infant.
abstract: Gastric teratomas are very rare tumors accounting for less than 1 % of all teratomas of infants and children. Little more than 100 cases of gastric teratomas are reported in the literature; out of which, very few of them are of immature variety. Complete excision of the gastric teratoma carries a good prognosis. We hereby report a case of immature gastric teratoma in a 3-month-old baby.
