RESUMO
Dermoid cysts are developmental tumours that develop from germ cells displaced between the 3rd and 5th week of embryogenesis. Although dermoid cysts are known to be the most common scalp swellings; cystic congenital inclusion dermoid of the anterior fontanelle is a very rare scalp swelling. It is a benign, slow-growing, non-tender, soft swelling which is covered with intact skin. Ruling out intracranial extension is necessary. Computed Tomography is the investigation of choice for its diagnosis. We describe such a rare case of cystic congenital inclusion dermoid of the anterior fontanelle where the cyst was completely excised.

RESUMO
AIM: Review of the clinical presentation, types (histology), and stages of presentation and overall outcome of ovarian tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This is a retrospective study. Forty nine girls from 3 days to 12 years were included in the study. RESULTS: Fourteen girls had benign and thirty three had malignant ovarian tumors. One girl had bilateral ovarian non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Dysgerminoma (40%) was the commonest malignant tumor followed by malignant teratoma (16.6%). CONCLUSION: Pain and abdominal lump are the most common modes of presentation. Prognosis depends on the size of the tumor, stage and histology of the tumor. Conservative surgery should be the aim. Multidisciplinary management gives good prognosis.
RESUMO
