Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to do a literature review and combine all of the cases of the intrapericardial teratoma tumor and see if some conclusions can be made about this rare tumor in children.

Detailed description

We excised an intrapericardial teratoma tumor out of a child approximately one month ago. This is a very uncommon tumor overall, and even more uncommon in children. The majority of reports in the literature are single case reports I would like to report ours, as well as do a literature review to combine all of the cases and see if some conclusions can be made about this rare tumor in children.
