presacral (3 to 5%), nervous system (2 to 4%) and less than 2% are oropharyngeal. The prevalence in women is 3:1. The objective of this work is to present and describe the clinical case of a patient who was diagnosed with this pathology at our medical institution. Awareness of work groups that rapid coordination and team effort leads to a successful outcome of a rare and uncommon pathology that can lead to death.
