Congenital intraspinal extradural cysts (intraspinal meningocele).

A case of congenital, intraspinal, extradural cyst is reported with pain as the only presenting feature. In the past, the lack of pain has been considered one of the characteristics of these rare lesions. In other reported cases, when pain has been present, it was minimal and never the presenting feature. The clinical and radiographic features and the surgical treatment are described. The pathogenesis is discussed and the literature reviewed. An addition to the surgical technique is given whereby one of the post operative complications may be obviated.
