| dc.description.abstract | Intrapericardial teratoma is a type of germ cell tumor and arises from stem cells derived from all three germinal layers. Intrapericardial teratomas are almost pedunculated, with attachment to the aortic root or pulmoanary vessels and are invariably associated with pericardial effusion. Here we report a case of a large tumor revealed by thoracic computed tomography. Histopathology examination confirmed the diagnosis of an intrapericardial teratoma. Rarity of the lesion makes this case worthy of documentation. Key Words: Teratoma; Thoracic Computed Tomography; Pericardial Effusion | |
