“…In fact, intracranial teratoma with fetiform remains of multiple individuals, as presented in Ruysch's case, has been reported only twice [Kimmel et al, 1950; Naudin ten Cate et al, 1995]. Gastric teratoma (case 3) accounts for less than 1% of all teratomas in childhood [Cairo et al, 1981] with a 161 reported cases [Ukiyama et al, 2005]. Only five cases concern adult individuals [Gray et al, 1964; Liu et al, 2009].…”

The Peter the Great Museum of Anthropology and Ethnography (Kunstkamera) in Saint Petersburg is the oldest museum in Russia. It keeps the remains of the anatomical collection of the world‐famous 17th century Dutch anatomist Frederik Ruysch. This unique collection was bought and shipped in 1717 by Czar Peter the Great, and presently still comprises more than 900 specimens, a modest number of which concerns specimens with congenital anomalies. We searched for teratological clues in the existing collection and in all his descriptions and correspondence regarding specimens and cases he encountered during his career as doctor anatomiae and chief instructor of the surgeons and midwives in Amsterdam. A total of 63 teratological specimens and case descriptions were identified in this legacy, including some exceedingly rare anomalies. As it turns out, Ruysch was the first to describe several of the conditions we encountered, including intracranial teratoma, enchondromatosis, and Majewski syndrome. Although his comments pose an interesting view on how congenital anomalies were scientifically perceived in early 18th century Europe, Ruysch mostly refrained from explaining the causes of the conditions he encountered. Instead, he dedicated himself to careful descriptions of his specimens. Almost 300 years after his demise, Ruysch's legacy still impresses and inspires both scientists and lay men. © 2016 The Authors.

“…Balik et al (1990) reported the second case of malignant gastric teratoma in an infant that was also treated by total excision. Ukiyama et al (2005) on the other hand reported a recurrent yolk sac tumor following resection of a neonatal immature gastric teratoma. This calls for a close follow-up of all patients with immature gastric teratoma.…”

“…1 Tumor localization with calcium gluconate arterial stimulation with hepatic venous sampling (ASVS) for insulin has been shown in cases of unsatisfactory imaging or suspected tumors smaller than 1cm. The surgeon's goal is to cure the patient with minimal morbidity, and confidence in localization of the lesion is a means to this end.…”
