DISCUSSIONThe signs and symptoms in this patient, along with the imaging findings, indicated Marfan syndrome. This case illustrates the importance of considering dural ectasia in young and old patients with Marfan syndrome who have low back pain, radicular pain in the buttocks or legs, leg weakness, or urinary incontinence. Dural ectasia may be accompanied by spondylolisthesis, scoliosis, and vertebral erosions and/or fractures. This condition may be associated with an anterior sacral meningocele and may manifest as a pelvic mass. This patient was symptomatic, and neurosurgical repair of the dura was considered.
