Spinal Malformations

Limited dorsal myeloschisis (LDM) is a rare form of spina bifida which is characterized by a fibroneural stalk between the inner part of the skin and the spinal cord. It may be associated with split cord malformation (SCM). Diagnosis and management of this complex malformation is challenging. We presented 3 different cases of LDM. Two of them were associated with Type I SCM and the other had no associated malformation. All of them were evaluated radiologically just after the birth and underwent surgical treatment under intraoperative neuromonitoring. They discharged without any complication. Newborns with spinal cystic lesions should be carefully evaluated for spinal malformations after the birth and treated surgically as soon as possible in order to prevent neurological and urological complications secondary to tethered cord syndrome. Surgical technique in LDM-SCM patients is quite different than the patients with solitary LDM.

✓There is a well-recognized association between dysontogenetic tumors of the spinal cord (including teratomas and enterogenous cysts) and dysraphic congenital spinal malformations. The authors present a case of an adult with an intramedullary mature teratoma (IMMT) at the level of C1–2 of the cord associated with dysraphic congenital spinal malformations. Intramedullary mature teratomas of the cervical region of the spinal cord are very rare in adults; only four such lesions have been reported, two of which involved upper cervical segments. Despite the potentially critical location of the tumor, monitored microsurgery resulted in complete removal of the tumor with an intact surrounding capsule, associated fibrous tract, and ellipse of skin with a central dimple. There was an excellent postoperative neurological outcome. The clinical features, imaging studies, treatment options, postoperative outcome, and plausible pathological correlations of IMMTs are discussed.
