Article Synopsis
- Tailgut cysts are rare cysts found near the rectum and can develop into tumors, but it's not fully understood how this happens.
- A study looked at four patients with tailgut cysts, focusing on their symptoms and how the cysts looked under imaging and when examined in the lab.
- In two patients, abnormal cell changes (dysplasia) were found, which might lead to a more serious cancer called adenocarcinoma, highlighting the need for surgery to remove these cysts.
