Tarlov cysts are formed by ectasia of the perineural spaces around the spinal nerve roots in or distal to the dorsal root ganglion. The cerebrospinal fluid constitutes the cerebrospinal fluid content. Pathogenesis and clinical findings remain unclear. The majority of the defects are asymptomatic. However, in the case of nerve root or spinal cord compression, symptoms such as low back pain, radiculopathy, and bowel and bladder dysfunction occur. Tarlov cyst is rare, and there is limited data on its clinical findings and incidence. This study presents a 10- year-old child patient with urinary incontinence and a Tarlov cyst. This is an interesting case due to the limited data about Tarlov cysts in pediatric patients.
