Abstract

<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Intraspinal epidermoid cysts are congenital or acquired in origin; whereas intraspinal neurenteric cysts (NECs) are of congenital origin. Their individual association with spinal dysraphism and vertebral segmentation anomalies is very well known. <b><i>Case presentation:</i></b> We hereby report a case of concurrent intradural extramedullary epidermoid and NEC at adjacent vertebral levels in a spinal dysraphism child, not reported in English Literature till now. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Multiple spinal lesions related to any/all of the 3 germ layers can coexist at same or adjacent vertebral levels in the same patient and surgical planning shown to be done accordingly.
