Teratomas are tumours consisting of different cell types derived from more than one germ layer. Apart from the gonads, teratomas can also be found in midline structures [1]. Coccyx is the most common site of extragonadal teratoma. These tumours originate ventral to the sacrum and may grow posteroinferiorly into the gluteal area or anterosuperiorly into the lesser pelvis. Most of the sacrococcygeal teratoma in adults presents as intrapelvic masses, in contrast to neonates where more than 90% present as extrapelvic masses. …
