Low position of the conus medullaris terminating at S1-S2 level with thickened filum terminale fixed by a fusiform lipomatous lesion of high signal on both T1 and T2 attenuated on fat-saturated sequences visible at S2-S3 level, in keeping with a lipoma of the filum terminale.

Axial sequences (not shown) due to patient motion artifact.
