Gastric teratoma in infants--a report of two cases.

ABSTRACT

Gastric teratoma is an exceeding rare lesion seen most often in male infants. Two cases of gastric teratoma, the first in a three and half month male, and the second in a one year old male child are reported. In the first case, the tumour was more solid, while in the second case it was a solid-cystic mass. These two cases represent the additions to the few, limited, known gastric teratomas reported in the world literature.
