    Abstract:
    Neurenteric cyst represents a rare cystic lesion of the central nervous system, and is generally thought to result from failure of separation of neuro-ectodermal and endodermal elements during week 3 of embryogenesis. Although recurrences have been reported, only one case of craniospinal dissemination has previously been reported. We describe a unique intracranial neurenteric cyst with recurrence and dissemination to the spinal cord.
