Oropharyngeal teratoma, oral duplication, cervical diplomyelia and anencephaly in a 22‐week fetus: A review of the craniofacial teratoma syndrome

“…According to both interpretations, CTS emerges as a discrete monotopic field defect of the cephalic midline. The observation of additional thoracic and abdominal blastogenetic malformations in 13 (26.5%) instances (Brodsky, ; Clausnitzer, ; Hori, ; Lu et al, ; Slavotinek et al, ; Noguchi et al, ; Jank et al, ; Bonet et al, ; Manjila et al, ; Prakash et al, ; Ginat et al, ; Maeda et al, ; present patient) indicates the possibility of a polytopic presentation likely related to the timing, intensity, and/or spatial extension of the dysembryogenic insult.…”

“…We identified a total of 48 additional cases in 39 papers from 1931 to 2013 (Feller, ; Brodsky, ; Clausnitzer, ; Morton, ; Rintala and Ranta, ; Bale and Reye, ; Hori, ; Wittkampf and van Limbourgh, ; Trotman and McNamara, ; Kollias et al, ; Shah et al, ; Hamon‐Kérautret, ; Lu et al, ; Vandenhaute et al, ; Uchino et al, ; Shroff et al, ; Spencer, ; Haghighi et al, ; Mutlu et al,2004; Goldstein and Drugan, ; Huisman et al, ; Slavotinek et al, ; Noguchi et al, ; Stewart et al, ; Jank et al, ; Bhattacharya et al, ; Madhusudhan and Kandpal, ; Joethy et al, ; Calda et al, ; Chariker et al, ; Kumar et al, ; Bonet et al, ; Manjila et al, ; Prakash et al, ; Rabelink et al, ; Ginat et al, ; Maeda et al, ; Shen et al, ; Tsai et al, ).

Angiomyolipomatous hamartoma of the upper lip: A rare case in an 8-month-old child and differential diagnosis

“…Elements described within these lesions have included the following: smooth muscle, skeletal muscle, vasculature, glands, fat, nerves, lymphoid tissue, connective tissue, cutaneous adnexae, glial elements, epithelium and myxoid calcified (Zalzal et al, 1994;Ide et al, 1998;de la RosaGarcia and Mosqueda-Taylor, 1999;Fertilo and Rinaldo, 2001;Halfpenny et al, 2001;Horn et al, 2001;Kobayashi et al, 2001;Gillett et al, 2003;Agostini et al, 2008 ;Jank et al, 2008;Nava-Villalba et al, 2008). To our knowledge, a lesion combining skeletal muscle, vessels and fat in such uncommon place is very rare in a child.…”
