Two children and one infant with a "human tail" are presented. The patho-embryology of this medical curiosity is briefly discussed. Treatment is usually unnecessary but resection of part of the coccyx together with the "tail" may become indicated by coccygodynia or for aesthetic reasons.
本文报告了两名儿童和一名婴儿出现“人尾巴”的病例。简要讨论了这种医学奇症的病理胚胎学。通常无需治疗，但因尾骨痛或出于美观考虑，可能需要切除部分尾骨及“尾巴”。
