Background: Intrasacral occult sacral meningoceles (OSM) are uncommon congenital lesions that rarely become symptomatic, even over a patient's life time.
Methods: We operated on six patients with symptomatic OSM diagnosed on MR studies (all six) and/or CT examinations (four cases).
Results: All six patients had uneventful postoperative recoveries.

Tarlov or perineural cysts are cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-filled sacs found between the perineurium and epineurium of the nerve roots. It is still unsure whether the origin of these cysts is intradural or extradural. They can either be asymptomatic or create a variety of negative impacts on comfort and quality of life.

Department of Neurosurgery, Children's Hospital Medical Center, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, No. 62, Dr. Gharib St, Keshavarz Blvd, Tehran 14155-7854, Iran.
Background Context: Split cord malformation (SCM) is a congenital disease that can be associated with other spinal anomalies. Few cases of concurrent intradural arachnoid cyst and SCM have been sporadically reported; however, sacral extradural arachnoid cyst (SEAC) with SCM is very rare.
Purpose: The report describes our experience with simultaneous surgery in patients with concurrent SEAC and SCM in an effort to document the treatment of the rare spinal concomitant anomalies.
Intrasacral meningocele in the pediatric population.
J Neurosurg Pediatr
June 2013
Department of Neurosurgery, Boston Children’s Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Object: Intrasacral meningoceles are rare cystic lesions that can cause focal compression within the bony sacral canal. Their mechanisms are poorly understood, but most intrasacral meningoceles appear to be intrasacral extradural cysts caused by arachnoid herniating through a small dural defect in the caudal end of the thecal sac. As opposed to perineural cysts, they are not associated with an exiting nerve root.

Occult intrasacral extradural cyst is a rare entity. Since little about this lesion has been reported in the literature, this study herein demonstrates by cases some of the clinical features and surgical treatment of occult intrasacral extradural cyst in children. A series of 4 children, 2 boys and 2 girls aged from 4 years and 6 months to 11 years, with occult intrasacral extradural cyst were reviewed.
