dc.description.abstractExtradural meningeal cysts are rare lesions and are uncommon causes of spinal cord or nerve compression. Most of these lesions probably remain unrecognized life-long, because they cause no symptoms. With the widespread use of new imaging techniques, asymptomatic spinal extradural meningeal cysts are becoming increasingly common. The therapeutic guidelines have not been well-established yet. Generally, patients with neurological deficits undergo surgery, whereas conservative approach is advised in asymptomatic individuals. Here, we report a 44-year-old woman who has suffered back pain for more than 20 years. Her symptoms were accompanied by numbness and tingling at the lower limbs. She has been followed with various diagnoses and treatment modalities in different centers. We established the diagnosis of huge thoracal extradural meningeal cysts and followed the patient with conservative approach. Turk J Phys Med Rehab 2012;58:252-4.en_US
