Abstract
Tarlov Cysts are images that appear in the lower portion of the spine. They can be developed congenitally or acquired. Most people with this condition are asymptomatic, but some may develop pain or paresthesia in the affected area. Diagnosis is usually made through imaging tests, such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.
