LACUNZA PAREDES, Rommel Omar  e  SILVA PACHECO, Jhoanna. Sacral cutaneous appendage associated with lipoma of the filum terminale and anchored medulla: a case of prenatal diagnosis. Rev. peru. ginecol. obstet. [online]. 2022, vol.68, n.3, 00008.  Epub 22-Set-2022. ISSN 2304-5132.  http://dx.doi.org/10.31403/rpgo.v68i2432.

Closed spinal dysraphisms have a still unknown prevalence and involve a wide variety of forms. Lipoma of the filum terminale is considered within spinal lipomas and is usually associated with tethered medulla. Lumbosacral cutaneous stigmata are not always indicative of closed spinal dysraphism. We report a case of prenatal diagnosis of sacral cutaneous appendage with suspected tethered cord, confirmed at birth as lipoma of the filum terminale with tethered cord.
