Abstract

A 3-year-old girl with repaired cloacal exstrophy and two skin-covered dorsal lumbosacral masses was documented to have two lipomyelome-ningoceles at noncontiguous levels of a tethered spinal cord. The clinical, radiographic. myelographic, CT. and surgical appearances are presented to illustrate the features of this extremely rare anomaly.
