Objective: to define the specific aspects of the TCS diagnostics and to determine the indications for surgical treatment. Methods: clinical, neurovisualization, neurophysiological, urological examination, intraoperative diagnostics and morphometry in female patient 9 years old with TCS. Results: clinical and electrophysiological improvement after surgical treatment was observed. Conclusions: the presence of clinical manifestations of the TCS resistant to drug therapy is an indication for surgery, even in the absence of neuroimaging signs of the spinal cord tethering.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>скрытый синдром фиксированного спинного мозга</kwd><kwd>диагностика</kwd><kwd>хирургическое лечение</kwd><kwd>occult tethered cord syndrome</kwd><kwd>diagnostics</kwd><kwd>surgical treatment</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Еликбаев Г.М., Ким А.В., Самочерных К.А.
