Subcutaneous Sacrococcygeal Lipoma in a 7 Months Old Female Mimicking Myelomeningocele and Sacrococcygeal Teratoma, A Case Report

Abstract

A 7-month-old female presented with a congenital sacrococcygeal mass. While SCT and MMC are common, MRI ruled them out, leading to simple excision. Histopathology revealed a rare subcutaneous sacrococcygeal lipoma. This case emphasizes the use of advanced imaging to differentiate benign soft-tissue lesions from spinal or neoplastic pathologies in infants.
