Integrated multimodality and multi-disciplinary team approach to pre-sacral lesions.

Abstract:

:The purpose of this article is to describe the clinical and radiological features of presacral lesions. CT and MRI are the diagnostic modalities of choice and are complimentary in the assessment of presacral lesions. Imaging findings of presacral lesions on CT and MRI are described with the use of examples. Preoperative biopsy, surgical and non-surgical managements are outlined. While the general radiologist cannot be familiar with every rare presacral condition, characterisation of a presacral lesion based on anatomy, demographics and imaging features can guide us in making a sound differential.
