. The structure of cancer incidence inchildren has its own characteristics. The majority of tumorsthat appear in childhood are of embryonic origin. Malignantneoplasms (MN) remain one of the most serious diseases ofchildhood. At present, it is obvious that it is impossible totake measures aimed at reducing morbidity and mortalityfrom MN and to improve the quality of life of cancerpatients without proper accounting and registration of thispatients’ group. The structure of oncopathology in childrenof different age groups of Vinnitsia region is given.The purpose of the study is to provide medical andstatistical assessment of malignant neoplasms in children ofVinnitsia region and to highlight the experience of treatmentof a newborn with giant teratoblastoma of external-internallocalization and teratoma of internal localization.Results. The profile of malignant neoplasms in childrenof Vinnitsia region has been presented and the clinical caseof giant teratoblastoma of external-internal localizationand teratoma of internal localization has been described.Conclusions. The most informative diagnostic methodis computed tomography with contrast enhancement, whichallows you to clearly determine the topographic location ofthe tumor and its relationship to the surrounding anatomicalstructures, considering the complexity of the anatomicallocation of sacrococcygeal teratoblastoma (SCT). Earlysurgical treatment of SCT, namely removal of the tumorwith the coccyx, is the only correct and justified treatmenttactic.
