Epignathus teratoma is a rare tumor whose prognosis essentially depends on its resectability and on neonatal care. When it is undiagnosed prenatally, mortality is close to 100 % at birth, because of obstruction of the upper airways. We present a case of epignathus teratoma detected during obstetrical ultrasound screening. Diagnosis enabled planning for a safe delivery in a suitable multidisciplinary unit and use of the EXIT procedure.
上颌寄生胎畸胎瘤是一种罕见的肿瘤,其预后主要取决于肿瘤的可切除性以及新生儿护理情况。如果产前未被诊断出来,由于上呼吸道梗阻,出生时的死亡率接近100%。我们报告一例在产科超声筛查时发现的上颌寄生胎畸胎瘤病例。该诊断使得能够在合适的多学科科室规划安全分娩并采用产时宫外治疗(EXIT)手术。
