ABSTRACT
Introduction: the term teratoma was first time used in 1869 by Virchow to refer to sacrococcygeal growths. It is the most frequent tumor in perinatal period; however it presents a low mortality rate at birth, medical literature is reviewed concerning coccygeal teratoma.
Case report: the bibliography concerning coxigeal teratoma is revised. A case is presented of a male neonate, weight 3000 g, natural birth, in Pongui Village, Kimongo District, extrahospitalary, at a rural medical post. He is admitted after six days of been born, due to a tumor in the sacrocoxigeal region. The clinical study and the complementary tests allowed diagnosing a benign sacrocoxigeal teratoma.
Conclusions: it was for the first time performed in the Congo Republic Dolisie Hospital, the removal of a tumor in two periods, due to its big size. The child´s evolution was favorable and it did not exist redisive after 12 months.
