Mesenteric teratoma associated with acute perforated appendicitis in a 2-year-old girl.

Mesenteric teratoma is a rare tumor, with few cases reported in the literature. Because mesenteric teratomas have no specific signs or symptoms, their clinical manifestations depend on their size and location. This report describes a mesenteric teratoma associated with acute perforated appendicitis in a 2-year-old girl who presented with abdominal pain and high grade fever. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
