We report two cases of epidermal nevus syndrome (ENS) involving the spine. MR imaging of the spine demonstrated intraspinal lipomas in both cases. Abnormal, enhancing, enlarged cervical and lumbosacral nerve roots were present in one patient. Spinal imaging for patients with ENS may help in the diagnosis of subtle intracranial manifestations, as it did in both of our cases. ENS has features similar to those of other neurocutaneous syndromes, such as neurofibromatosis type 1 and encephalocraniocutaneous lipomatosis.
我们报告了两例累及脊柱的表皮痣综合征（ENS）。两例患者的脊柱磁共振成像均显示椎管内脂肪瘤。其中一名患者存在异常、强化且增粗的颈段和腰骶神经根。ENS患者的脊柱成像可能有助于诊断细微的颅内表现，就像我们这两例患者一样。ENS具有与其他神经皮肤综合征相似的特征，如1型神经纤维瘤病和脑颅皮肤脂肪瘤病。
