The aim of this paper is to present the case of a fetus with anterior sacral meningocele, initially diagnosed as a large multilobulated ovarian cyst in a patient diagnosed with Marfan syndrome It is a herniation of the dural sac, through large sacral foramina, and deformed by dural ectasia, occupying mostly by cerebrospinal fluid.
