Abstract
It is rare for patients with diastematomyelia to manifest initial symptoms in adult life. Clinical, radiological, and surgical features of a patient with symptomatic adult diastematomyelia are presented. Pathogenetic mechanisms are considered to include a variety of congenital spinal anomalies, distinct from the spur, as well as mechanical factors.Entities:
