Abstract
Ovarian mature teratoma are benign tumors of the ovary and have been reported in wide age groups ranging from 1 to 91 years [1]. They comprise 10%-15% of cases. They are the most common neoplasms detected in adolescents and during pregnancy. The most commonly known complication is torsion of the tumor, reportedly observed in approximately 16% of cases [2-3]. Meanwhile, formation of fistulas into neighboring organs is an extremely rare complication, occurring in less than 1% of cases and seldom reported [2,4].
