Abstract
A very rare case of mesenteric teratoma is reported. Complete tumor resection is the main prognostic factor for survival in such cases. Therefore, an important factor for successful surgery is the exact preoperative visualization of the extent of the tumor, including visualization of the abdominal arteries. This report describes the use of spiral computed tomography with 3-dimensional reconstruction for visualization of the extent of multiple mesenteric teratomas.Entities:
