==[[Sacrococcygeal teratoma pathophysiology|Pathophysiology]]==
The preferred first treatment for SCT is complete surgical removal (ie, complete resection). The preferred approach to a small SCT is through the [[perineum]]; a large SCT may require an additional approach through the [[abdomen]].  Resection should include the coccyx and may also include portions of the [[sacrum]]. The surgery should include reattachment of the small muscles and ligaments formerly attached to the coccyx, in effect reconstructing the posterior perineum.


SCTs are classified morphologically according to how much of them is outside or inside the body:
==[[Sacrococcygeal teratoma causes|Causes]]==
*Altman Type I — entirely external, sometimes attached to the body only by a narrow '''stalk'''
*Altman Type II
*Altman Type III
*Altman Type IV — entirely internal;  this is a '''presacral teratoma'''


The Altman Type has a significant influence on management, surgical approach, and complications of SCT.  Serial ultrasound and MRI monitoring of SCTs in fetuses [[in utero]] has demonstrated that the Altman Type can change over time.
==[[Sacrococcygeal teratoma differential diagnosis|Differentiating Sacrococcygeal teratoma from other Diseases]]==


Regardless of location in the body, [[teratoma]]s are classified according to a [[cancer staging]] system.  This indicates whether [[chemotherapy]] or [[radiation therapy]] may be needed.
==[[Sacrococcygeal teratoma epidemiology and demographics|Epidemiology and Demographics]]==


==Management of fetal SCTs==
==[[Sacrococcygeal teratoma risk factors|Risk Factors]]==


Management of most fetal SCTs involves [[watch and wait]], also known as [[expectant management]].  An often used [[decision tree]] is as follows:
==[[Sacrococcygeal teratoma screening|Screening]]==


*Perform detailed ultrasound exam including fetal [[echocardiogram]] and [[Doppler]] [[Data-flow analysis|flow analysis]]
==[[Sacrococcygeal teratoma natural history, complications and prognosis|Natural History, Complications and Prognosis]]==
**If fetal high output failure, placentomegaly, or [[hydrops]]
***If fetus not mature, perform [[pregnancy termination]] or [[fetal intervention]]
***Else fetus mature, perform emergency [[Cesarean section]]
**Else no emergent problems, perform serial [[non-stress test]]s and ultrasound [[biophysical profile]]s and plan delivery
***If emergent problems develop, return to top of decision tree
***Else if SCT over 5–10cm or [[polyhydramnios]], perform early (37 weeks gestation) [[Caesarean delivery on maternal request|elective Cesarean]] section
***Else SCT small and no complications, permit term [[spontaneous vaginal delivery]]


Emergent problems include maternal [[mirror syndrome]], [[polyhydramnios]], and [[preterm labor]].  Poor management decisions, including interventions that are either premature or delayed, can have dire consequences.<ref name="pmid11965727">{{cite journal
