Two cases of traumatic extradural cysts of the spine are reported following disk surgery. Both cases had complete myelographic studies and the correct diagnosis was made prior to surgery.
The rarity of this entity is evidenced by only II documented case reports in the literature.
Careful myelographic examination is stressed in the evaluation of patients with recurrent symptoms following disk surgery.
The literature has been reviewed and discussed.
