Overview
CT scan is not part of the routine investigation of sacrococcygeal teratoma. On CT scan, sacrococcygeal teratoma is characterized by bone, fat, and cystic components.[1]
CT scan
- CT scan is done post-natally to determine the extension of the tumor.
- Identifies bone, fat and cystic components.[1]
- Calcification may also be seen.
Images
-
Grade III–IV hydronephrosis (thick dashed arrow) and ureter obstruction (thin solid arrow)[2]
-
Normal left ovarian vein (dashed arrow) and right, enlarged and thrombi-filled, ovarian vein (three solid arrows)[2]
-
