Pregnant dermoid
A 16 year-old, pregnant at 8 weeks, is admitted to the medicine service. She was thought to have massive ascites and had 2 liters of thick, tan fluid with hair removed from her abdomen. A later MRI revealed a shrunken dermoid cyst. She was taken to the operating room for a possible leaking teratoma.
