Abstract

Localization of primitive neoplasms the retrorectal or presacral space is rare in adults as most of these tumors are congenital. Developmental cysts are included within the group of retrorectal congenital cystic neoplasms and are slowly-progressive cystic neoplasms. Because of their localization, their manifestation is delayed, despite their congenital nature. Their form of presentation is varied and is caused by compression of the surrounding organs or infectious complications of the cyst.We describe two cases of presacral developmental cysts (one epidermoid cyst and one dermoid cyst) that presented in adulthood. Special attention is paid to the classification, and diagnostic and therapeutic problems of these tumors.
