“…Most CHTs are diagnosed or visible at birth. This is likely due to the fact that the majority of CHTs are predominantly external (total 82%) [13], but in other cases where the external component is absent, the mode of revelation varies according to its prolonged evolution and its locoregional extension which may concern all the structures adjacent to the teratoma. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) provides the baseline examination that characterizes the nature of the mass, and the links to the muscular and bony structures of the pelvis (upper strait).…”

“…4). The necessity of neonatal surgical resection is presently admitted considering the mass effect of the lesion but also its potential malignant transformation (6). Tumoral markers ( foetoprotein, HCG…) are currently measured out after surgery to have a baseline value allowing biological follow-up.…”
