Abstract:
A case of sacrococcygeal cystic teratoma in a 16 month-old female infant having suffered from urinary retention and severe constipation for 3 days was herein reported. Confirmative diagnosis was possible by barium enema and contrast media injection into cystic mass located in the presacrococcygeal region. Successful removal of the cystic teratoma with the patient in a prone position was performed. Uneventful postoperative course followed.
