In a four-month-old neonate a pericardial teratoma was diagnosed which exerted pressure on the airways, right atrium and large blood vessels. The tumour was removed by operation. It was a simple, mature pericardial teratoma. Supporting cytostatic treatment was administered. Three years after operation the patient is free of signs of relapse of the tumour.
