Abstract
Case report

A newborn male with right proptosis secondary to a retroocular mass was admitted. Ophthalmological examination also showed corneal ulcer and perforation, iris hernia, total ophthalmoplegia, chemosis and eyelid retraction. The histopathology diagnosis was mature teratoma.

Discussion

Teratomas are tumors composed of a mixture of mature tissues consisting of 3 germ layers. Congenital teratomas of the orbit are very rare and should be included as a possibility in cases with a primary tumor in the orbit.

Keywords:
Teratoma
Congenital
Orbital
Resumen
Caso clínico

Recién nacido masculino con proptosis secundaria a tumor retroorbitario. La exploración oftalmológica mostró úlcera corneal, perforación, hernia del iris, oftalmoplejia y retracción palpebral. Se realizó estudio anatomopatológico con diagnóstico de teratoma maduro.

Discusión

El teratoma congénito maduro es una neoplasia germinal con presencia de elementos maduros de las tres capas germinales. Es una lesión poco frecuente en la órbita que debe ser incluida en los diagnósticos diferenciales cuando se encuentra un tumor retroorbitario congénito.

Palabras clave:
