BACKGROUND
Spinal intradural arachnoid cysts are rare in the pediatric population. We present a rare case of intradural spinal arachnoid cysts that spontaneously and repeatedly disappeared and reoccurred.
CASE DESCRIPTION
A 2-year-and-8-months-old boy presenting with lower extremity weakness was found to have spinal intradural arachnoid cysts in cervical and thoracolumbar regions at separate times. Although spontaneous disappearance of both lesions was observed, surgical treatment was finally performed for the symptomatic recurrent thoracolumbar lesion.
CONCLUSIONS
To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of spontaneously disappearing and recurring spinal arachnoid cysts.
背景
脊髓硬膜内蛛网膜囊肿在儿科人群中较为罕见。我们报告一例罕见的脊髓硬膜内蛛网膜囊肿，该囊肿自发反复消失和复发。
病例描述
一名2岁8个月大的男孩因下肢无力就诊，先后在颈椎和胸腰段发现脊髓硬膜内蛛网膜囊肿。虽然两个病灶均观察到自发消失，但最终对有症状复发的胸腰段病灶进行了手术治疗。
结论
据我们所知，这是首例关于脊髓蛛网膜囊肿自发消失和复发的报告。
