We report here a fetal sacrococcygeal teratoma found at 26 weeks of gestation. An ultra-fast T2 weighted imaging method enables the clear visualization of morphological details of the fetus without motion artifacts. Complete surgical resection was performed immediately after cesarean birth, and no evidence of tumor recurrence was confirmed at 1 year of age.
