We report three cases of enterogenous cyst, one craniospinal and two s
pinal manifesting with features of spinal cord compression. In one the
cyst was intramedullary in location and in the other two it was intra
dural, extramedullary. The unusual clinical presentation, location and
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics are discussed. None
of the three patients had any vertebral anomaly or other congenital ma
lformation. All patients had excellent outcome following surgery.
