Abstract
Cutaneous lesions in the midline may be hallmarks of an occult spinal dysraphism. They rarely may occur in the cervical and thoracic regions. We report a 9-year-old girl with a cervico-thoracic lipoma associated with an underlying syringohydromyelia. Early detection of potentially complicated conditions can prevent the occurrence of irreversible neurologic damage.Entities:
