Abstract:
Intrathoracic teratoma is mainly found on the anterior mediastinum. For teratoma of the pleura, one case was described. We have presented what we believe to be the first report of a teraroma of the pleura, which was mainly composed of neuroglial cells and was accompanied with lymph node metastasis.
