32516000: Structure of conus medullaris (body structure)

SNOMED CT Concept\Body structure\Anatomical or acquired body structure (body structure)\Anatomical structure\...

\An anatomical structure that consists of the maximal set of organ parts so connected to one another that together they constitute a self-contained unit of macroscopic anatomy, distinct both morphologically and functionally from other such units. Together with other organs, an organ constitutes an organ system or a body part. An organ is divisible into organ parts but not organs (examples: femur, biceps, liver, heart, aorta, sciatic nerve, ovary).\Brain and spinal cord structure (body structure)\Spinal cord structure\Spinal cord part\Region of spinal cord\Lumbosacral spinal cord structure\Structure of conus medullaris

\Body region structure\Structure of back of trunk and/or neck (body structure)\This volume includes the spinal column, its spaces and contents, notably the spinal canal, spinal meninges and spinal cord. It also includes the muscles associated with the spine within (and including) the anterior and posterior thoracolumbar fascia and its equivalent nuchal fascia in the neck. This region also includes the spinal ventral (anterior) and dorsal (posterior) roots, the dorsal root (spinal) ganglions and the spinal nerve trunks.\...

In a transitional lipoma of the spinal cord the lipoma-spinal cord interface includes the conus medullaris and extends to the dorsal and caudal aspects of the lumbar spinal cord.	Finding site	True	Structure of conus medullaris	Inferred relationship	Some	2
A rare closed lipomatous, dysraphic malformation of the lower spinal cord characterized by extramedullary lipomatous mass attached to the conus region. The conus is dysplastic and poorly delineated. Various morphological subtypes are recognized. Possible symptoms include bowel and bladder dysfunction and neuro-orthopedic deformity of the lower limbs.	Finding site	True	Structure of conus medullaris	Inferred relationship	Some	1
A rare dysraphic abnormality characterised by the infiltration of fatty tissue localised in the filum terminale, with abnormal conus shape. The spinal cord is typically attenuated and the limit between its end and the fatty filum is hard to distinguish. There is no additional spinal cord malformation, but it can be associated with vertebral abnormalities, anorectal malformation or other syndromic condition. It is named transitional for its intermediate image between an isolated filum lipoma and a terminal conus region lipoma.	Finding site	True	Structure of conus medullaris	Inferred relationship	Some	2
A rare closed lipomatous, dysraphic malformation of the lower spinal cord characterized by extramedullary lipomatous mass attached to the conus region. The conus is dysplastic and poorly delineated. Various morphological subtypes are recognized. Possible symptoms include bowel and bladder dysfunction and neuro-orthopedic deformity of the lower limbs.	Finding site	True	Structure of conus medullaris	Inferred relationship	Some	2
A rare dysraphic spinal cord lipoma with characteristics of a lipomatous mass extending ventrally to the dorsal root entry zone, indicating a more severe malformation of the spinal cord. The diagnosis can be suggested on imaging but usually confirmed during surgery.	Finding site	True	Structure of conus medullaris	Inferred relationship	Some	1
A rare closed dysraphism with terminal stalk with characteristics of persistant rudimentary spinal cord below conus. It contains non-functional neural tissue and is typically isolated. The diagnostic is suggested by attenuated conus without fat, further confirmed by pathological analysis (glioneuronal core with ependyma-lined lumen, nerve roots, and dorsal root ganglia). Differential diagnostic with intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring is mandatory as neuroimaging fails to distinguish it from functional conus.
