The teratocarcinoma are congenital tumors which tissues derivate of the three embryological layers. Rare in head and neck become exceptional in paranasal sinuses. The paper deals with a teratocarcinoma sitting in the ethmoidal labyrinth. It is the first documented instance from Venezuela. The world literature on this subject is sparse.
The paper deals with 60 adults (aged between 13-30) tonsillectomies done under general anesthesia. The collective was alternatively divided in 2 groups, only one of them receiving local infiltration. In the infiltrated group the tonsil dissection was easier, the bleeding sparse and the follow-up less unpleasant.
The paper deals with the cases of 3 women, aged between 28 and 35 years, the three having had tonsillectomy and complaining of troubles compatible with the styloid syndrome. X-ray and tomographs corroborate the diagnosis. Under general anesthesia the abnormally developed processes were high resected and the complaints gone.
