Teratomas can occur in almost any region of the body and are the most common extragonadal germ cell childhood tumors. However, craniofacial teratomas are rare. Craniofacial teratomas can present unique features and cause significant functional and aesthetic concerns. There are complex lesions that can have components intra-cranially and extra-cranially. Therefore, their management requires significant multi-stage multidisciplinary surgical procedures. Herein, we present a case of craniofacial teratoma in a child with the phenotype of proboscis lateralis that highlights some of the pertinent point of the diagnosis and management of congenital neonatal teratomas.
畸胎瘤几乎可发生于身体的任何部位，是儿童期最常见的性腺外生殖细胞肿瘤。然而，颅面畸胎瘤较为罕见。颅面畸胎瘤可呈现独特特征，并引起严重的功能和美观问题。存在一些复杂病变，可同时具有颅内和颅外成分。因此，其治疗需要多阶段的多学科手术操作。在此，我们报告一例患有侧鼻畸形表型的儿童颅面畸胎瘤病例，该病例突出了先天性新生儿畸胎瘤诊断和治疗的一些相关要点。
