Presacral epidermal cyst in adult

Presacral tumors are relatively uncommon. We report a case of presacral epidermal cyst in a 29-years-old female, which was completely extirpated through a posterior approach ,whitout removal of the coccyx. Histological examination showed a cyst lined by keratinized stratified squamous epithelium.
