Abstract:
Mature cystic teratomas of the fallopian tube are unusual, being almost incidentally identified. Here we describe a case of mature cystic teratoma arising in the fallopian tube, in a 44-year-old female. The mass was found during a regular checkup without complication. Microscopically, components from each germ layer were identified.
