title: Spontaneous Regression of Thoracic and Extraperitoneal Glial Implants in Child With Gliomatosis Peritonei After Resection of Ovarian Teratoma.
abstract: Gliomatosis peritonei is a rare condition associated with ovarian teratomas. Even rarer is extraperitoneal gliomatosis. We present a case of extraperitoneal gliomatosis with pleural implants and implants within the flank muscles, which regressed after resection of the primary tumor.
