Neurosurg Clin N Am. 1990 Jul;1(3):687-99.

Abstract

The topics discussed in this article include secondary neoplasia, hemorrhage, meningeal cysts, infectious and inflammatory conditions, and intradural disc herniation. Although they are relatively uncommon in occurrence it is important that these disorders be included in the differential diagnosis of patients harboring intradural pathology. The epidemiology, clinical features, and treatment considerations of these conditions are presented.
