Özet
Tethered cord syndrome is a neurological disorder closely associated with congenital spinal dysraphism. Aberrant dorsal nerve roots may be one of the possible and relatively rare tethering pathologies, especially in the complex form of occult spinal dysraphism such as caudal regression syndrome or split cord malformation. We report an illustrative case of caudal regression syndrome with spinal cord tethering due to a combination of a contiguous bundle of an aberrant dorsal nerve root, and a dorsal-type lipomyelomeningocele, with a thickened filum terminale treated with microneurosurgical untethering.
