    Abstract:
    CASE REPORT: We report a case of a 12-month-old boy with split-cord malformation, tethered cord, and intradural immature teratoma containing immature nephroblastic tissue. He also had a horseshoe kidney. OUTCOME: Surgical removal of the teratoma and tethered cord resulted in functional improvement of the existing bladder dysfunction. DISCUSSION: To our knowledge, such a case has not been reported before.
