Although teratomas are the most common tumors in the testes of prepubertal children, prenatally detected testicular teratomas are extremely rare. To date, only 6 cases of prenatally detected testicular teratomas have been reported in the English literature. An intra-abdominal mass and an ipsilateral undescended testis were confirmed after birth in all 6 cases. Preservation of testicular tissue was not performed in any case. Herein, we report the first case of prenatally diagnosed intrascrotal testicular teratoma in an infant who underwent testis sparing surgery.
虽然畸胎瘤是青春期前儿童睾丸中最常见的肿瘤,但在产前检测到的睾丸畸胎瘤极为罕见。迄今为止,英文文献中仅报道了 6 例产前检测到的睾丸畸胎瘤。这 6 例患儿在出生后均证实存在腹腔内肿块和同侧未降睾丸。在任何情况下均未保留睾丸组织。在此,我们报告首例经产前诊断为婴儿精索内睾丸畸胎瘤的病例,并进行了保留睾丸手术。
