Tarlov cysts adjacent to the spinal cord are usually asymptomatic and found incidentally via magnetic resonance imaging. On rare occasions, they increase in size to produce symptoms resembling disk herniation. We report a rare case of a sacral cyst resulting in premature ejaculation in a 32-year-old man who presented with pelvic pain and acquired premature ejaculation. Spinal nerve root decompression, excision of intraspinal Tarlov cyst, and spinal nerve root adhesion release surgery significantly improved his pain and premature ejaculation at a six-month follow-up
