Abstract

The filar cyst is a rare finding in prenatal reports. Described as an image with
well-defined anechogenic fluid in the center of the spinal canal below the conus
medullaris, it usually has a good long-term prognosis. So far 13 cases of prenatal
diagnosis have been published in the literature, we report 5 new cases and review
the literature.
