RESUMENEl meningocele anterior sacro oculto es un disrafismo espinal de presentación infrecuente. Se origina por la protrusión de un saco dural, a través de un defecto óseo en la pared sacra anterior, que se localiza en el espacio extraperitoneal presacro. Su etiología es multifactorial y generalmente asintomática, pudiendo asociarse a otras patologías urogenitales, digestivas y ortopédicas. Se diagnostica en forma incidental como una masa homogénea pelviana que contiene duramadre y, ocasionalmente, estructuras nerviosas. En este trabajo, presentamos un caso de meningocele anterior sacro oculto asintomático. Palabras Clave: Meningocele, disrafismo espinal. (Fuente: DeCS). ABSTRACTOccult anterior sacral meningocele is considered as a rare spinal dysraphism. It is caused by the protrusion of a dural sac, through a bone defect in the anterior sacral wall, which is located in the peritoneal space or presacral space. Its ethiology is multifactorial and asymptomatic generally, and it may be associated with other urogenital, digestive and orthopaedic pathologies. It is diagnosed as a homogenous pelvic mass incidentally that contains dura mater and, neural structures occasionally. In this paper, we show a case of asymptomatic occult anterior sacral meningocele.
