Sacrococcygeal teratomas are relatively common in the newborn infants detected by the tail mass itself or by prenatal screening ultrasound. The diagnosis is not difficult in many cases; however, there should be additional information on imaging studies in order to manage those infants properly. Details include classification, histology, complications such as rupture or bleeding, mass effects on the adjacent structures causing hydronephrosis, bowel obstruction, or even hip dislocations. When the tumor is too big for a baby to be delivered safely, prenatal radiofrequency ablation could be one of treatment options

1. Principle of diagnostic imaging of sacrococcygeal teratoma Imaging features according to morphologic classification and pathologic types of sacrococcygeal teratoma 2. Effects on Adjacent Structures on initial presentation Bilateral or unilateral hip dislocation Obstructive hydronephrosis and hydroureter Inguinal hernia and hydrocele Hydrocolpos and colonic distension Rupture Malignant transformation Other associated anomaly 3. Clinical Management Prenatal radiofrequency ablation Postnatal surgical excision Preoperative embolization
