Abstract:

Sacrococcygeal teratomas (SCT) are rare congenital tumours that are even more uncommon when present in adulthood. They are derived from residual stem cells in the presacral space that differentiate into clusters of somatic cells. We present a case of asymptomatic sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT) in 28 years old female, presented for subfertility workup and diagnosed incidentally while investigating for it. Preoperative diagnosis was complex cystic lesion involving presacral space with possibility of dermoid, epidermal, or cystic presacral hamartoma. The mass was completely excised through abdomen

Introduction and importance: A sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT) is a rare embryonal tumor that emerges in the sacrococcygeal area. It affects one in every 35 000–40 000 live births.

Case presentation: A neonate girl from consanguineous parents was delivered by cesarean section with a large mass (18×17 cm) in the sacrococcygeal area. The baby’s birth weight was 5 kg, of which 2.5 belonged to the mass. The vital signs were within normal ranges and she had weak movement with bluish peripheral limbs.

Abstract:

Intradural sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT) is a rare entity that has been reported in only a few cases previously. The authors present the case of a 2-week-old, otherwise healthy neonate with a mass in the buttock. The imaging findings and the high level of serum alpha-fetoprotein were highly suggestive of SCT. On operation the authors found intradural extension of the teratoma. The lesion was managed successfully without any remaining sequelae. The authors briefly review the currently proposed etiology regarding teratoma formation and the intradural extension of SCT.

Abstract:

Prognosis of infants born with sacrococcygeal teratomas (SCTs) correlates with gestational age (GA). The survival rate after 30 weeks of gestation is 75%, compared to 7% before 30 weeks of gestation. Studies correlating GA with size, morphologic composition of teratomas, ploidy or expression of cell cycle control proteins such as p53, and ret [a tyrosine kinase receptor of the GDNF (glial cell line–derived neurotrophic factors)] receptor family may provide information explaining differences in survival. Seven SCTs (GA 21 to 41 weeks), ranging in size from 5 to 15 cm, were evaluated for morphol

Abstract:

Sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT) is a rare congenital tumor primarily affecting infants, with a prevalence of approximately 1 in 35,000 live births. These tumors, often detected either prenatally or shortly after birth, originate from germ cells and typically occur at the base of the coccyx. Despite their benign nature, SCTs can pose significant risks to fetal and maternal health, necessitating careful management and monitoring.

Abstract:

Sacro coccygeal teratoma (SCT) is the most common extra gonadal neoplasm in the pre sacral area occurring in neonatal period. They mostly occur in the midline with a female preponderance. They are usually attached to coccyx, They are believed to be arising from totipotent cells that originate from primitive knot (Hensen’s node), hence are usually attached to coccyx. Infection in a sacrococcygeal teratoma has been rarely reported. Here is a report of a case of vague gluteal mass in a neonate and challenges in its diagnosis and management.

Introduction: Sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT) is the most common solid tumour found in neonates. Most SCTs are reported in neonates and children, but SCTs are found in adults also. SCTs occur more commonly in females than males. If not detected antenatally, clinical features at birth are prominent in most cases as a palpable or visible mass. Surgery is the principal mode of treatment. The standard treatment for SCT with malignant elements is surgery and chemotherapy. Objective: To share the experience with sacrococcygeal teratoma, the most common tumour found in newborn in a tertiary milit

Sacrococcygeal teratomas (SCTs) are the most common germinal cell neoplasms of the fetus and neonate. They originate during embryonic development when the primitive streak fails to differentiate among mesodermal, ectodermal, and endodermal tissues in the embryonic disc. This article discusses the fetal pathophysiology of SCTs and the impact of the condition on the newborn. Fetal SCTs can have life-threatening physiologic effects— such as premature labor, dystocia, and high-output cardiac failure—if not managed appropriately.
