“…Primary retroperitoneal teratomas are very unusual neoplasms accounting for approximately 1–11% of all primary retroperitoneal neoplasms and typically occur in neonates, infants, and children age groups [ 9 , 15 , 16 ], and only 10–20% of these occur in adults more than 30 years of age [ 17 ]. Hence the primary retroperitoneal teratoma in our adult female patient is an extremely unusual presentation.…”

Teratomas are neoplasms of the embryonic tissues that typically arise in the gonadal and sacrococcygeal regions of adults and children. Primary adult retroperitoneal teratomas are rare and demand challenging management options. We report a case of a unilateral primary retroperitoneal mature cystic teratoma mimicking an adrenal mass in a 28-year-old female patient. Complete resection of the mass was performed by a laparotomy approach. Because of the risk of malignancy, follow-up radiographic studies were performed to ensure the oncologic efficacy of resection. The patient remains free of recurrence to date.

Teratomas are bizarre neoplasms derived from embryonic tissues that are typically found only in the gonadal and sacrococcygeal regions of adults. Primary retroperitoneal teratomas are rare and present challenging management options. We report a case of a unilateral primary retroperitoneal mature cystic teratoma mimicking an adrenal mass in a 54-year-old male patient. Complete resection of the adrenal mass was performed by the flank approach by using the 11th rib resection. Because of the risk of malignancy, follow-up radiographic studies were performed to ensure the oncologic efficacy of resection. The patient has been free of recurrence for longer than 12 months.

ÖzetTeratomlar genellikle yalnızca yetişkinlerin gonadal ve sakrokoksigeal bölgelerde bulunan embriyonik dokulardan elde edilen tuhaf tümörlerdir. Primer retroperitoneal teratom oldukça nadir ve tedavi yönetimleri oldukça zorludur. Biz 54 yaşında-ki erkek hastada adrenal kitleyi taklit eden tek taraflı primer retroperitoneal matür kistik teratom olgusunu sunuyoruz. Hastada kitle flank yaklaşımlı 11. kot rezeksiyonunu takiben tamamı rezeke edilerek çıkarıldı. Radyolojik çalışmalarda da görül-düğü gibi bu adrenal lojdaki kitle malignansi riski taşıdığı için ve onkolojik güven-lik ve etkinlik açısından tamamı rezeke edilerek çıkarıldı. Hastada 12. aydaki kontrolünde rekürrens saptanmadı.
