[Retrorectal tumor in adults. Combination of computed tomography and endorectal echography].
A retrorectal tumor was identified by presacral palpation in a 41-year old woman. Combined preoperative computed tomography and intrarectal ultrasound accurately delineated regional and local spread, respectively. This combined approach confirmed diagnosis and provided guidance for total ablation of a mature cystic teratoma.
