Antenatal and histological diagnostics of cystic sacrococcygeal teratoma. Clinical case and literature review
Abstract Objectives The congenital embryonic tumor known as sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT) affects 1 in 35.000–40.000 newborns and is more prevalent in female fetuses and neonates. A total of 25–50% of SCTs are diagnosed by an ultrasound (US) examination during the second trimester of pregnancy. Planning the manner of delivery, determining the risk of negative outcomes, and choosing treatment options depend on the results of antenatal differential diagnosis. Case presentation This is a unique case of a 29-year-old second gravida, suspected of having a fetal sacrococcygeal dysplasia differentiable between Type 2 SCT and terminal myelocystocele. An MRI revealed no typical SCT changes, as a matter of course, the diagnosis of myelocystocele could not have been excluded. The results of the genetic examination allowed to exclude the chromosomal pathology. Punctuation of the external component of the formation and a cytological examination were suggested. Nevertheless, the patient and her partner refused further studies and insisted on the termination of pregnancy. Medical abortion was induced and histological findings confirmed fetal morphology to be mature SCT. Conclusions Cystic sacrococcygeal teratoma is an unusual malformation of fetal development. In the antenatal period SCT is diagnosed based upon an ultrasound evaluation, an MRI, and a multidisciplinary assessment of clinical experts. Differential diagnosis based upon clinical imaging during the gestational period is elaborate. The final medical diagnosis needs to be verified by a histological evaluation of pathological tissue. An antenatal medical diagnosis of fetal dysplasia is considerable for the further prognosis of fetal and newborn development.
期刊介绍:
Case Reports in Perinatal Medicine is a double-blind peer-reviewed journal. The objective of the new journal is very similar to that of JPM. In addition to evidence-based studies, practitioners in clinical practice esteem especially exemplary reports of cases that reveal specific manifestations of diseases, its progress or its treatment. We consider case reports and series to be brief reports describing an isolated clinical case or a small number of cases. They may describe new or uncommon diagnoses, unusual outcomes or prognosis, new or infrequently used therapies and side effects of therapy not usually discovered in clinical trials. They represent the basic concept of experiences for studies on representative groups for further evidence-based research. The potential roles of case reports and case series are: Recognition and description of new diseases Detection of drug side effects (adverse or beneficial) Study of mechanisms of disease Medical education and audit Recognition of rare manifestations of disease.
