Spinal synovial cysts are rare entities for which standard surgical strategies are inconsistent. Here, we present an uncommon intraspinal gas-containing synovial cyst treated by percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic cystectomy. A 52-year-old man presented with radicular pain and intermittent claudication that had persisted for one month.

Background: There is controversy regarding the treatment of symptomatic synovial cysts, specifically, the need for a concomitant fusion when surgical resection of the synovial cysts is required. We present a retrospective review of a series of patients treated for symptomatic synovial cysts of the lumbar region during the last 20 years by a single surgeon, analyzing the current available literature.

Methods: Retrospective review.

Background: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an important tool in preoperative evaluation of patients with lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). Reported reliability of various MRI findings in LSS varies from fair to excellent. There are inconsistencies in the evaluated parameters and the methodology of the studies.

Intraspinal extradural gout tophus in the lumbar vertebral canal: Case reports.

Medicine (Baltimore)

January 2022

Department of Spinal Surgery, Quanzhou Orthopedic-Traumatological Hospital, Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Quanzhou, Fujian Province, China.

Rationale: Intraspinal gout tophus in the lumbar vertebral canal associated with gouty arthritis is rare. We present 2 cases with the first manifestations of a sequestrated intervertebral disc and an extradural tumor, and histopathologically proven to be gouty deposits in the lumbar vertebral canal.

Patient Concerns: The 2 patients presented with typical radiculopathy symptoms and a positive straight leg raise.
