The authors report a case of fetal brain teratoma diagnosed at 21 weeks of amenorrhoea and leading to therapeutic termination of pregnancy. After a survey of the general features of intracranial teratomas the literature has been reviewed with a view to separating those elements that can lead to a definite diagnosis and those in a differential diagnosis. This case is unusual because of the diagnosis being made relatively early, thanks to ultrasound. This made it possible to avoid carrying out an unnecessary caesarean operation, which so often has to be done if the diagnosis is made late.
作者报告了一例在闭经21周时诊断出的胎儿脑畸胎瘤病例，该病例导致了治疗性终止妊娠。在概述了颅内畸胎瘤的一般特征后，对文献进行了综述，以区分那些可导致明确诊断的因素和那些用于鉴别诊断的因素。该病例不同寻常，因为借助超声检查诊断相对较早。这使得避免进行不必要的剖宫产手术成为可能，而如果诊断较晚，往往不得不进行剖宫产手术。
