An Unusual Lesion of Epignathus with Duplicate Tongue and Ranula in a Neonate

We report a rare case of epignathus (oropharyngeal teratoma) in a neonate, who presented with a midline mass covered with skin and multiple hairs protruding from the Palate and associated with bifid tongue and ranula. With the characteristic presentation, diagnosis of oro/oropharyngeal teratoma was made and a massive internet search revealed very few reported cases of "epignathus". It is unfortunate that the survival of such neonates is only moderate. Prenatal scans and follow up in an institution can prepare the multidisciplinary team to save the child. EXIT procedure to excise the mass or secure the airway, with future repair of the palate is the treatment option available. This case report emphasizes the rare clinical presentation of the disease and the prenatal diagnosis of such a condition can help in prompt decision making and management.
