Abstract
We report a case of a 9-month-old girl with a sacrococcygeal tumor. Microscopical examinations revealed that the tumor was a mature type of sacrococcygeal teratoma which has been well known to increase the rate of malignant changes as time passes. We emphasize that an early diagnosis of this disorder is required in order to obtain a better prognosis.
