Okay guys, this is bad, but I ran across it on another website and I just had to share.
How to diagnose a teratoma:


1. Place an ice pack over the patient's focus of pain, usually just lateral to the periumbilical area along the umbilical line.

2. Wait fifteen minutes.

3. Remove ice pack.

4. Immediately place the diaphragm of your stethoscope where the ice pack was.

5. If you hear chattering teeth, it's a teratoma.

Sure beats all that costly imaging.
