Özet
Anterior sakral meningosel (ASM) sakrum ön duvarındaki kemik defektinden meningeal membranlar ve beyin omurilik sıvısının herniasyonu ile karakterize nadir bir konjenital anomalidir. Hastalar genellikle pelvik kitle ile ilgili kronik konstipasyon ve üriner rahatsızlıklar gibi semptomlar gösterirler. Bu makalede ASM vakasının radyolojik bulguları sunuldu.
