Summary: Sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT) is the most common congenital tumor, with an incidence of 1:40,000 live births. It originates from multipotential embryonic stem cells and most tumors arise from the anterior surface of the sacrum or coccyx. On ultrasound, SCT presents as a heterogeneous mass of variable size that stands out from the sacrococcygeal region. Here we present a picture of a SCT detected at the 20-22 weeks ultrasound examination in our institution. The fetus, who had a normal ultrasound examination at 13 weeks, also presented other characteristics suggesting this diagnosis, later confirmed by an histopathological analysis.
