Abstract

The coccygodinya is a clinical condition that is caracterized by tumescence and by ache in the coccyx area. It can be related with trauma or with anatomic conformation of this area. The coccygodynia occurs more frequently in women. We report that in the medical treatment it must use conservative strategies and only when those strategies fail it is indicated the surgical treatment which gives good results. The aim of this study is to evoluate the sirurgical treatment by coccygectomy with 12 pacients being evuluated showing good results in 10 cases, regular in 2 cases and no bad result.
