Abstract
Congenital teratoma rarely occurs in the craniofacial region. We present an infant with a nasal tip teratoma that was documented by ultrasonographic examination. The tumor was excised at 1 day of life, and the splayed upper and lower lateral cartilages were apposed primarily. The remaining redundant skin was excised in a second stage. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a nasal tip teratoma.
