    Author: Baldi PG, Paini GP, Bertolino GC, Cusmano F.
    Journal: Surg Neurol; 1986 May; 25(5):501-4. PubMed ID: 3961666.
    Abstract:
    The authors report two cases of diastematomyelia in adults. One patient had a congenital kyphoscoliosis; the other had undergone surgery at birth for a myelomeningocele. The occurrence of diastematomyelia in patients with congenital scoliosis and myelomeningocele is discussed. Diastematomyelia is regarded as one of the causes of late deterioration of neurological function in such cases.
