Finally, if it were possible for a dermoid to spring from an unimpregnated egg one wouldexpect a much greater frequency of these tumors, considering the enormous number of unfertil-ized eggs that pass the tube. Nevertheless, only 5 authentic cases of dermoids in the tubeshave been reported. Since the dermoids and teratomata contain constituents from all three germinal layers(entoderm, ectoderm, mesoderm), it must be that they spring from cells that stand close to.
