    Journal: J Neurosurg Spine; 2008 May; 8(5):482-6. PubMed ID: 18447697.
    Abstract:
    Only 4 cases of gas-filled intradural cysts of the spine have been reported previously. All cysts were due to intradural herniation of a gas-containing disc. The authors report 2 additional patients with gas-filled intradural cysts that migrated into the nerve root of the cauda equina. After surgical treatment their severe leg pain completely resolved.
