Summary

This study looked at 57 people with Currarino syndrome, a rare condition that can cause a tumor near the tailbone. Researchers used yearly MRI scans and blood tests to track the tumor and look for genetic links. The goal was to better understand who is at risk and why, not to test a new treatment.
