Intraspinal enterogenous cysts are rare congenital abnormalities that mainly develop in the spinal canal, more commonly in the cervical and thoracic regions, and rarely in the lumbar spine. We present a case of neurenteric (NE) cyst in the conus medullaris and cauda equina junction at the level of L1 in a patient presenting with a nine-year history of progressive lower limb weakness, paresthesia, and muscle wasting. The patient underwent complete resection of the cyst and had no postoperative complications with marked improvement of paresthesia and some localized pain in the lower back manageable by analgesics.

Objective: Intraspinal cysts are uncommon, and the success rate of complete resection is still low for spinal neurenteric cysts (NCs). The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacies of an anterior microscopic surgical approach in the treatment of ventral and ventrolateral subaxial cervical NCs (SCNCs).
Methods: Between 2019 and 2022, 9 patients with NCs of the subaxial spine underwent an anterior microsurgical approach.

These are amenable to gross total excision and usually carry a good functional outcome. Methods In this study, we reviewed the surgical outcomes of 35 patients who underwent excision of intradural extramedullary tumors.
