    Journal: Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg (1979); 1979; 87(5):628-34. PubMed ID: 503526.
    Abstract:
    Teratomas of the newborn are rare true neoplasms occasionally arising from the nasopharynx and causing respiratory obstruction. A case requiring immediate tracheostomy is presented along with its subsequent management and eventual extubation. A brief discussion of teratomatous tumors is given. This case represents the youngest patient to receive a tracheostomy.
