Sacrococcygeal teratomas in children [PDF]

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1972
Abstract Forty-four patients with sacrococcygeal teratomas are reported, and their surgical management discussed. Early complete excision with removal of the coccyx is recommended and was practiced in 33 cases. Such management eliminates recurrence, with its increased chance of neoplastic change. The mortality in this series from all causes was 27%.

Factors associated with poor outcome in fetuses prenatally diagnosed with sacrococcygeal teratoma

Prenatal Diagnosis, 2021
Outcome of fetuses, prenatally diagnosed with sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT), is still poorly documented. This study assesses the incidence and prenatal predictors of outcome in all fetuses prenatally diagnosed with SCT.
