Nuchal-type fibroma (NTF) is a rare, benign, tumour-like fibrous proliferation of unknown pathogenesis. Despite the name, approximately one-third of cases occur at extranuchal sites. We report a rare case of NTF of the sacral region, an extremely uncommon extranuchal site. As NTF is often misdiagnosed because of its rarity and histopathological similarity with other fibrous tumours, we present this case to increase understanding of this rare disease entity.
