Intramedullary neurenteric cyst associated with a tethered spinal cord: Case report and literature review
BACKGROUND Neurenteric cysts are benign tumors of the central nervous system (CNS) that represent 0.3% to 0.5% of all spinal cord tumors. They are usually extramedullary and found in the lower cervical and thoracic spine. Only 12.2% of neurenteric cysts are documented to be intramedullary. CASE DESCRIPTION The authors report a case of a 35-year-old female that presented with progressive weakn...
متن کاملTethered Cord Syndrome Secondary to the Unusual Constellation of a Split Cord Malformation, Lumbar Myelomeningocele, and Coexisting Neurenteric Cyst
We describe a seminal case report of a child with a tethered cord syndrome secondary to the unusual constellation of a split cord malformation, lumbar myelomeningocele, and coexisting neurenteric cyst. A 17-year-old adolescent girl with a several-month history of myelopathy and urinary incontinence was examined whose spinal MRI scan demonstrated a type II split cord malformation with a large bo...
متن کاملSpinal neurenteric cyst in a dog
A 2-year-old female crossbreed dog was presented with progressive ataxia and paraparesis. A T3-L3 spinal lesion was determined by neurological examination. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an ovoid-shaped, well-circumscribed mass affecting the spinal cord at the level of the T9 vertebra. A left hemilaminectomy and a durotomy at the level of T9 allowed discovery of an ovoid deformation ...
متن کاملSpinal neurenteric cyst presenting as burning feet syndrome.
Spinal neurenteric cysts are rare congenital cysts of endodermal origin. A 34 years old man presented with burning feet syndrome of two years duration. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an intradural extramedullary cystic mass lesion extending from L2 to L5 vertebrae causing severe compression and displacement of terminal portion of conus medullaris and filum terminale to the right side...
متن کاملSpinal somatosensory evoked potentials in patients with tethered cord syndrome.
We studied the electrophysiological changes occurring in six patients with tethered cord syndrome. Evidence of spinal malformations was provided by magnetic resonance imaging. The functional assessment of the spinal cord was performed by analysing both spinal and cortical somatosensory evoked potentials. The evoked electrospinogram was recorded from the thoracic and lumbosacral spinous processe...
