|
A rare dysraphic abnormality characterised by the infiltration of fatty tissue localised in the filum terminale, with abnormal conus shape. The spinal cord is typically attenuated and the limit between its end and the fatty filum is hard to distinguish. There is no additional spinal cord malformation, but it can be associated with vertebral abnormalities, anorectal malformation or other syndromic condition. It is named transitional for its intermediate image between an isolated filum lipoma and a terminal conus region lipoma. |

|
A rare closed dysraphism with stalk characterized by a dorsal midline dermal sinus tract lined by keratinizing stratified squamous epithelium extending to the intrathecal space. Other components such as hair follicles and shafts, mesenchymal derivatives (blood vessels and fibrous tissue) and occasionally nerve fibers can be observed. Inflamed granulation tissue containing mixed neutrophils, plasma cells, lymphocytes, and histiocytes is consistently found in the tract. It can also be associated with an intradural dermoid cyst. This malformation is at risk to cause intrathecal infections (meningitis, empyema) that justify prophylactic surgery. |
