✦ Synopsis

A case of sacrococcygeal teratoma diagnosed at 31 weeks' gestation by fetal MR imaging is presented. For fetal MR imaging, an ultrafast imaging sequence, Half-Fourier acquisition single shot turbo spin echo (HASTE) was employed. The HASTE sequence enabled us to obtain high resolution images in a short time and was particularly useful in enabling better contrast between the cystic and solid components of the tumor.
