A 35-year-old man complained of right truncal pain around T7-8 dermatomal distribution and on examination, T7-8 spinal tenderness was observed. Magnetic resonance imaging showed osteolytic mass in T8 vertebral body without structural lesions involving spinal nerve roots. Dermatomal somatosensory evoked potentials (DSEP) were helpful in diagnosis with thoracic radiculopathy. Finally, Langerhans cell histiocytosis was confirmed in bone biopsy. Thoracic radiculopathy can be caused by various etiologies including bone tumor and DSEP is useful supplementary tool for diagnosing thoracic radiculopathy.

✓ The surgical anatomy of giant sacral meningeal diverticula varies greatly depending on whether they develop ventral or dorsal to the thecal sac and spinal nerve roots. The ability to distinguish between the two lesion types preoperatively is therefore advantageous. The authors present a method of distinguishing ventral from dorsal meningeal diverticula on magnetic resonance imaging using the “thecal tip sign.” They also describe the differences in operative technique required for resection of each type of diverticular cyst.
