Sacro coccygeal teratoma (SCT) is the most common extra gonadal neoplasm in the pre sacral area occurring in neonatal period. They mostly occur in the midline with a female preponderance. They are usually attached to coccyx, They are believed to be arising from totipotent cells that originate from primitive knot (Hensen’s node), hence are usually attached to coccyx. Infection in a sacrococcygeal teratoma has been rarely reported. Here is a report of a case of vague gluteal mass in a neonate and challenges in its diagnosis and management.

“…The Scanner shows the endo-pelvic extensions of small sizes that could escape the ultrasound. Oral or intravenous administration of contrast enhances the chances of visualizing anterior repression of the rectum and bladder [23][24][25]. Concerning medical imaging, other diagnostic methods such as standard radiography, MRI, which we have not used in our case, are also very important for the diagnosis in such affection [26,27].…”

Sacro-coccygeal teratoma (SCT) is a type of tumor which mostly occurs in newborn babies. The vast majority of this type of tumor is benign. That pathology can be diagnosed antenatally or at birth. Teratomas, especially those diagnosed in the neonatal period, occur most frequently in the sacrococcygeal region. Clinically in many cases, we can observe a large swelling (mass) in the sacrococcygeal region. In some cases, there are signs of compression following by the displacement of the rectum and pelvic organs. Alphafetoprotein is the main biological test used. In association morphologically by echography, CT-scan, MRI and others, the tumor is classified. The classification used is the topographical one of TSCs, which was proposed by Altman to the American Academy of Pediatric Surgery. The mainstay of therapy is the complete surgical removal. We present a case of a newborn (6 months), female, with teratoma sacro-coccygeal. At birth the baby was noticed to have large swelling (mass), without any sign of compression of others organs. Clinical and paraclinical signs permitted us to conclude of a SCT type II of Altman's classification. A surgery was performed with a sacral approach. Histologically, tumors were classified into good (mature) category.
