OBJECTIVE: We assessed CT-guided percutaneous injection of fibrin glue to manage meningeal cysts of the sacral spine in patients with back pain. CONCLUSION: All patients experienced resolution or marked improvement of symptoms for as long as 23 months after fibrin glue therapy. No patients experienced recurrence of symptoms during the follow-up interval. Percutaneous CT-guided fibrin glue therapy for sacral meningeal cysts may be a more definitive therapy than repetitive cyst aspiration.
