RESUMEN

El dolor lumbar crónico es una dolencia con una prevalencia que va desde un 54 % hasta el 80 % en nuestra población, con un importante impacto sanitario laboral y social.
El origen es muy variado y obedece a múltiples causas. Solo un 10 % se cronifica, pero consume recursos sanitarios que pueden llegar hasta el 80 %.
Los “quistes perineurales” o “Quistes de Tarlov” son alteraciones en la duramadre de las raíces nerviosas, que se producen más frecuentemente en la zona sacra. El diagnóstico suele ser casual mediante RMN; la incidencia es variable, debido a que el hallazgo es incidental. Habitualmente son asintomáticos, pero pueden producir radiculopatía, dolor perineal o vejiga neurógena, entre otros.
