Abstract
Two cases of diastematomyelia with adult onset are added to the 19 patients already reported in the literature. Seventeen of them exhibited a neurological deficit, whereas our patients presented with low back pain only. Cutaneous, neuromuscular and/or radiological signs of spinal dysraphysm were found in all patients with adult diastematomyelia. If the presence of these signs were to receive more attention, more cases of adult diastematomyelia would be recognized.Entities:
