Tarlov cysts are most commonly located in the S1 to S4/S5 region of the spinal canal, but can be found along any region of the spine.They usually form on the extradural components of sacrococcygeal nerve roots at the junction of dorsal root ganglion and posterior nerve roots and arise between the endoneurium and perineurium.

Pilonidal cysts may be caused by a congenital pilonidal dimple. [14] Excessive sweating can also contribute to the formation of a pilonidal cyst: moisture can fill a stretched hair follicle, which helps create a low-oxygen environment that promotes the growth of anaerobic bacteria, often found in pilonidal cysts. The presence of bacteria and ...

The first task of diagnosis is to determine whether the pain is related to the coccyx. Physical rectal examination, high-resolution X-rays and MRI scans can rule out various causes unrelated to the coccyx, such as Tarlov cysts and pain referred from higher up the spine. Note that, contrary to most anatomical textbooks, most coccyxes consist of ...
[1] [4] Tarlov cysts have been speculated as a cause. [ 3 ] [ 11 ] PGAD has been associated with clitoral priapism , [ 12 ] and has been compared to priapism in men.
