Key MRI Findings in Sacrococcygeal Teratoma

  • MRI more accurately characterized the intrapelvic and abdominal extent of the tumors, post-natally.[1]
  • MRI provides extent of compression of the adjacent organs.
  • MRI provides more accurate prenatal counseling and improved preoperative planning for surgical resection.
