Abstract
A patient with benign posterior mediastinal teratoma which is a rare site for teratomas is reported. Chest skiagram and CT of the thorax established the diagnosis. Complete removal of the mass was not possible on surgery as it was adherent to the pericardium and the esophagus. The patient remained asymptomatic one year after the surgery. There was no evidence of recurrence of the tumor.
