  • Title: Intraspinal cervical degenerative cyst. Report of three cases.
    Author: Hatem O, Bedou G, Négre C, Bertrand JL, Camo J.
    Journal: J Neurosurg; 2001 Jul; 95(1 Suppl):139-42. PubMed ID: 11453417.
    Abstract:
    The authors report three cases of cervical degenerative cysts causing medullary or radiculomedullary compression. Anatomicopathological examination confirmed the fibrous nature of the cyst wall and the absence of a synovial layer. One of the cysts was embedded in the ligamentum flavum, whereas the other two were most lateral and adherent to the facet joint. The physiopathogenesis of these cysts is discussed.
