Differential diagnoses include neuroblastoma, adrenal hemorrhage, and congenital cystic lesions, which share overlapping clinical and imaging features.

Teratomas are germ cell tumors that arise from the derivatives of the three germ cell layers. They are categorized into subtypes by the extent of maturation, with mature teratomas being the most common subtype. While they can arise in various extragonadal regions, including the retroperitoneum, their occurrence in the retroperitoneal space is extremely rare.
