Congenital orbital teratomas are rare entities with few case reports detailing their prenatal and perinatal imaging features. We present the case of a congenital orbital teratoma initially detected as cystic lesion on prenatal ultrasound, with foetal and postnatal imaging showing evolution of characteristic MRI appearances. Knowledge of these appearances and the ability to diagnose these rare entities in foetal life can aid management and operative planning in the immediate postnatal period.

D008279 Magnetic Resonance Imaging Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.

D013724 Teratoma A true neoplasm composed of a number of different types of tissue, none of which is native to the area in which it occurs. It is composed of tissues that are derived from three germinal layers, the endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm. They are classified histologically as mature (benign) or immature (malignant).
