ABSTRACT
Anterior sacral meningocele is a protrusion of the dural sac through a bone defect in the sacrum anterior wall. It can occur in isolation or be associated with other malformations, such as the Currarino syndrome, which is part of the classic triad together with hemisacrum and anorectal malformation, although it has great variability. This is the case of an adult woman with chronic constipation, recurrent urinary infection and marked abdominal distension, diagnosed with giant anterior sacral meningocele and incomplete Currarino syndrome. The patient underwent a sacral laminectomy and thecal sac ligation at the level of the bone defect. This article describes this rare type of occult spinal dysraphism as well as the surgical technique used.
