Coccygeal Pad With an Anterior Flexed Coccyx: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
Objective: A coccygeal pad is a nodular lesion in the sacrococcygeal area. It is a rare disease characterized by corneal thickening, the proliferation of collagen bundles, and an anterior flexed coccyx. In the English literature, 42 patients have been reported. Methods: We present a young male case of a typical coccygeal pad with an anterior flexed coccyx. Results: After resection of the nodule and coccygectomy, there has been no recurrence during the 6-month postoperative follow-up. Conclusions: Plastic surgeons should recognize this as a disease to be differentiated from gluteal skin tumors.
