  • Title: The human tail associated with intraspinal lipoma: case report.
    Author: Gönül E, Izci Y, Ongürü O, Timurkaynak E, Seber N.
    Journal: Minim Invasive Neurosurg; 2000 Dec; 43(4):215-8. PubMed ID: 11270835.
    Abstract:
    A case of a tail in a 9-month-old baby is reported. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging clearly demonstrated the presence of spina bifida and lipoma continuous from the tail to the spinal canal. A few medical-historical aspects are discussed. The human tail may be related to spinal dysraphism and requires detailed neuroimaging investigation and microsurgery.
