Sacral Rheumatoid Nodule: An Unusual Indication for Coccygectomy

Abstract EN

Here, we present a case report of a woman who presented with a large sacral rheumatoid nodule.

This patient failed conservative treatment and presented in search of a surgical solution.

We successfully removed her rheumatoid nodule using a surgical approach typically reserved for traumatic coccydynia.

We show how coccygectomy, although a rare surgical procedure, was effective in treatment of a large rheumatoid nodule.
