    Author: Wang H, Yang Y, Liao S, Zheng J, McNutt MA, Yu T, Wang S, Liu C.
    Journal: Br J Neurosurg; 2009 Apr; 23(2):199-202. PubMed ID: 19306179.
    Abstract:
    An unusual case of a carcinoid tumour in a lumbar extradural teratoma presenting as tethered cord syndrome and spina bifida without carcinoid syndrome in a 51-year-old woman is reported. These entities existing simultaneously in the same region are extremely rare and this suggests they have a common origin.
