Abstract

With the presentation of a case of giant anterior sacral meningocele, the evident superiority of magnetic resonance imaging over any other methods for the diagnosis of this rare condition is demonstrated. Ultrasound as a screening tool is often the first to reveal the presence of the intrabdominal cystic abnormality and furthermore is an excellent means for checking the post-operative course. In addition this particular case is interesting because the dural stalk linking the meningocele to the dural abdominal sac was not entirely free from nervous structures inspite of macroscopic appearances to the contrary.
