| ABSTRACT |
|
Synovial cysts occur typically in peripheral joints and tendon sheaths. They rarely occur intraspinally. Recently we have experienced a case of extradural synovial cyst in the cervical spine, causing a myelopathy which results in progressive motor weakness and sensory change. The case is therefore presented with review of literatures. |
