Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We describe a female infant with a diaphragmatic hernia and nasopharyngeal teratoma. The case is compared with two previous reports of this combination of features. We suggest that this can no longer be considered a random association but instead represents the emergence of a distinct syndrome of which this case represents the third report.
