Tarlov cyst. Theme update
arlov cysts or perineural cysts are congenital conditions formed by ectasia of the perineural space of the spinal nerve roots. Despite the fact that there are isolated reports and small series of patients, they remain a little known topic in the medical field and there are few extensive reviews about it. Tarlov cysts are generally rare congenital conditions. Most are asymptomatic. In a group of patients the symptoms lead to invasive treatment. The ideal treatment continues to be a subject of debate.
