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.[1]
  • Calcification may again be seen.
