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]
Key CT Findings in Sacrococcygeal Teratoma
- CT scan is done postnatally to determine the extend of the tumor.
- Identifies bone, fat and cystic components.[2]
- Calcification may again be seen.
CT Examples of Sacrococcygeal Teratoma
-
Grade III–IV hydronephrosis (thick dashed arrow) and ureter obstruction (thin solid arrow)
-
Normal left ovarian vein (dashed arrow) and right, enlarged and thrombi-filled, ovarian vein (three solid arrows)
-
