Abstract

Sacrococcygeal teratoma is the most common teratoma in the neonatal period. Fetal and neonatal mortality is high due to its large size. The case of a 27 year-old patient, 25 weeks gestation, who was admitted to the Perinatal Maternal National Institute with the diagnosis of sacrococcygeal teratoma is reported. During her hospitalization there was absence of fetal heartbeats. Delivery was vaginal and the patient did not present any complications; she was discharged in 24 hours.
