Teratomas are tumors that originate from pluripotent stem cells and are known to contain tissues derived from all three embryonic germ layers: the ectoderm (e.g., skin, nerve tissue), mesoderm (e.g., muscle, bone, fat), and endoderm (e.g., gut epithelium, respiratory epithelium). Branchial cysts and thyroglossal cysts are generally derived from ectoderm and endoderm remnants. Dermoid cysts primarily contain ectodermal elements.
