Abstract
- Tethered cord syndrome is a complication of spinal dysraphism. The tethering of the cord does not permit the normal cranial migration of the conus within the vertebral canal. The result is a neural dysfunction due to a traction neuropathy. Although this condition commonly presents in childhood, less severe degrees of tethering may remain asymptomatic until adult life. The authors report a new case of tethered cord syndrome in a 25-years-old young girl, cause of bladder dysfunction. Clear improvement of urinary repercussions is obtained after surgery.
