Spinal anomalies are commonly encountered in radiology practice. Spinal dysraphism is defined as a defect in the development and closure of the germ layers of the developing spine. It can manifest as a soft tissue mass in the spinal region or may remain occult without any visual mass. Sacral spina bifida usually presents as a globular soft tissue mass over the back. Its presentation as a tail like projection is rare and infrequently reported. Because of its rarity, such a case may be regarded as an anatomical variant resulting in neurological consequences in later life. The objective of this article is to sensitize the clinicians to the rare manifestation of sacral lipomyelocele as human tail.

“…9 Mukhopadhyay M et al reported duplication of caecum and appendix as evidence of organogenesis in renal teratoma. 6 Primary carcinoid tumors in a mature teratoma of the kidney have also been reported. 10,11 Neuroepithelial tissue and other immature components are present in immature teratoma.…”

“…Only 16 cases of intrarenal teratoma in children have been reported5 and only few of them reported as immature. [5][6][7] The main primary childhood renal neoplasms are nephroblastoma, mesoblastic nephroma, clear cell sarcoma and rhabdoid tumor. The teratoid nephroblastoma can be confused with a teratoma because of the presence of heterologus tissues.…”

We report a rare case of immature renal teratoma in a 5-month-old female infant. The patient presented with abdominal mass, which was found to arise from the left kidney. The preoperative diagnosis of Wilms' tumor was based on clinical and imaging fi ndings. The patient was managed with nephrectomy and had normal recovery. The histopathological examination of nephrectomy specimen revealed grade 2 immature teratoma.

“…The kidney is one of the least common sites for teratoma and other germ cell tumors, and renal teratomas are extremely rare. To date, 36 cases (13 males, 23 females) of renal teratoma have been reported worldwide,1–5 with ages ranging from 3 days to 72 years and tumor size from 2 to 30 cm. In addition, eight patients have been reported to present complications with some congenital anomalies, such as duplex kidney, horseshoe kidney, double ureter, and renal dysplasia 6.…”
