The tethered cord syndrome is a form of spinal dysraphism in which a short, thickened filum terminale prevents the ascent of the conus medullaris and intraspinal lipoma causes compression upon the caudal part of the spinal cord. In pediatric age the first symptoms are urological: urinary incontinence and infection. Diagnosis is performed with urodynamic studies followed by nuclear magnetic resonance. Tethered cord syndrome is no obvious cause of a neurogenic bladder. When this pathological conditions is recognized properly and an operation is performed early the likelihood of improvement is rather high. The authors report a case of tethered cord syndrome in a girl seven years old.
脊髓栓系综合征是一种脊柱裂畸形，其中短而增厚的终丝阻碍脊髓圆锥上升，椎管内脂肪瘤对脊髓尾部造成压迫。在儿童期，首发症状为泌尿系统症状：尿失禁和感染。通过尿动力学检查，随后进行核磁共振来进行诊断。脊髓栓系综合征是神经源性膀胱的一个不明显病因。当这种病理状况得到正确认识并早期进行手术时，改善的可能性相当高。作者报告了一例7岁女孩的脊髓栓系综合征病例。
