[Sacrococcygeal teratomas. Apropos of a case of teratoma weighing 4200 g].
We report a clinical case of a large sacro-coccygeal teratoma diagnosed antenatally by ultra-sound at 35 weeks gestation. A review of the literature shows that their outcome depends upon the size of the tumor, its degree of maturity, whether its location is pelvic or not, the presence of any associated malformations, prematurity, atraumatic delivery and upon prompt and complete removal of the tumor.
