RESUMO
Los teratomas son neoplasias gonadales o extragonadales, derivadas de los tres tejidos embrionarios, compuesto de células germinales del neuroectodermo, del mesodermo y del ectodermo. El teratoma orbitario congénito (TOC) afecta comúnmente a la órbita izquierda, predominando en mujeres sobre hombres a razón 2:1. Se presenta el caso de un paciente femenino de 9días de vida extrauterina con un teratoma orbitario congénito maduro izquierdo, intervenida por el servicio de órbita y oculoplástica, realizando una exenteración orbitaria y resección total de la masa tumoral (AU)
