Abstract :
Sacrococcygeal teratomas are tumors that arise in the sacrococcygeal area containing tissue from all three germ layers. Sacrococcygeal teratoma has an incidence of(sim)one in 27 000 live births, with malignant transformation with increasing age. We report a unique case of a 6-year- old child with a large sacrococcygeal mass with rudimentary genitals with an intraoperativeintraoral misplacement of the endotracheal tube during positioning.
