Abstract
An epignathus is an extremely rare form of teratoma that arises from the oral cavity, most commonly from the palate. We describe a case identified sonographically at 17 weeks' gestation after a raised maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein was recorded. This pregnancy was terminated but we review the literature over the last 10 years and describe the management options available in such cases.Entities:
