The occurrence of teratoma is 1 in 4,000 live births. Head-and-neck region teratoma (epignathus) is rare. These patients present with facial disfigurement, respiratory problems, and difficulty in feeding. It warrants early excision to avoid any morbidity or mortality due to airway obstruction. We describe the management of a patient with pedunculated epignathus with cervical lymphangioma.
畸胎瘤的发生率为每4000例活产中有1例。头颈部畸胎瘤(咽颌部畸胎瘤)较为罕见。这些患者表现为面部畸形、呼吸问题和喂养困难。需要早期切除以避免因气道阻塞导致的任何发病或死亡。我们描述了一名患有带蒂咽颌部畸胎瘤并伴有颈部淋巴管瘤患者的治疗情况。
