Abstract

Background: Sacrococcygeal teratomas are neoplasias, which are most frequently found in infants, with the sacrococcígea area being the most frequently found extragonadal location.

Aim of the study: To describe a sacrococcygeal teratoma in a 51-year-old adult patient and discuss the diagnosis and management.

Methods: The case of a 51-year-old woman who had a sacrococcygeal teratoma. Computed tomography showed a mass containing calcification. Early signs were when she experienced acute lower back pain upon leaning over or sitting.

Results: The tumor appeared first as a sacral swelling. The patient also claimed disturbances in her bowel functioning. Computed tomography (CT) showed the tumor and its relationship inside the pelvic cavity. Surgical ablation was performed on the entire tumor and the coccyx was preserved.

Conclusion: The surgical block was sent to pathological exam, which showed it to be a mature sacrococcygeal teratoma. A good clinical evolution took place after resection.

成人骶尾蚴畸胎瘤1例。

背景:骶尾骨畸胎瘤是一种肿瘤，最常见于婴儿，其中sacrococcígea区域是最常见于骶尾骨外的位置。本研究的目的:描述一例51岁成人患者的骶尾骨畸胎瘤，并讨论其诊断和治疗。方法:51岁女性骶尾骨畸胎瘤病例。计算机断层扫描显示一个含钙化的肿块。早期的症状是当她弯腰或坐着时出现急性腰痛。结果:肿瘤首发表现为骶骨肿胀。病人还声称她的肠道功能紊乱。计算机断层扫描(CT)显示肿瘤及其在盆腔内的关系。手术切除整个肿瘤，保留尾骨。结论:手术块经病理检查为成熟的骶尾骨畸胎瘤。术后临床进展良好。
