Congenital orbital teratomas are rare entities with few case reports detailing their prenatal and perinatal imaging features. We present the case of a congenital orbital teratoma initially detected as cystic lesion on prenatal ultrasound, with fetal and postnatal imaging showing evolution of characteristic MRI appearances. Knowledge of these appearances and the ability to diagnose these rare entities in fetal life can aid management and operative planning in the immediate postnatal period.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
