Tératome intrapéricardique : diagnostic fœtal et prise en charge néonatale

Résumé

Intrapericardial teratoma is a rare primary cardiac tumor arising from all three germinal layers and usually diagnosed in the fetal or neonatal period. They are mostly benign, but life-threatening complications have been reported such as hydrops fetalis, cardiac failure and cardiac tamponade. We report a case of intrapericardial teratoma diagnosed in prenatal life and operated in neonatal period with success.
