Sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT) is rare germ cell tumor composed of multiple types of cells derived from the three primitive germ cell layers. SCT is the most common tumor of germ cells. In recent years the routinely use of prenatal obstetric ultrasonography has led to increase in the prenatal diagnosis of type of malformation. Management should be multidisciplinary and integrated by pediatric neurosurgeons, pediatric surgeons, pediatricians and oncologists. The advent of fetal surgery to identify fetuses at risk has improve survival. We present a review of the literature aimed to enable better understanding of this pathology.

Las hernias discales son una patología habitual dentro de la neurocirugía, pero la presentación suele producirse en la edad adulta y las series publicadas en niños son pocas y con un número de casos pequeño. (1) Presentamos el caso de un adolescente de 14 años, quien acude al servicio de neurocirugía de la Universidad de Cartagena con cuadro clínico de dolor lumboradicular de dos semanas de evolución en quién se demostró imagenológicamente una hernia discal lumbar.
