A rare case of retroperitoneal teratoma with obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal anomaly (OHVIRA) syndrome

Abstract

A 9-month-old girl presented with progressive abdominal distension. Imaging revealed a huge cystic mass in the left retroperitoneum with solid components. The right kidney was absent and hydrometrocolpos was found. Tumour drainage and complete surgical excision were performed. A bulge in the right side of the uterus, suggestive of a uterine anomaly, was seen on laparoscopic observation. Pathology was consistent with teratoma with a small portion of immature neural tissue. The patient was discharged in good condition and was advised regular follow-up.
