Filum lipoma is a rare condition characterized by the presence of a lipoma, which is a benign tumor made of adipose (fat) tissue, located at the filum terminale. The filum terminale is a fibrous extension of the spinal cord that anchors it to the coccyx. This condition can be associated with neurological symptoms if the lipoma exerts pressure on surrounding structures. Diagnosis typically involves imaging studies like MRI, and treatment may vary depending on the symptoms and extent of neurological involvement.
