Duplication of spine with hemi-lipomyelomeningocele [PDF]
Duplication of the spine is very rare, and this malformation is generally considered as a severe form of type I split cord malformations. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of spine duplication associated with lipomyelomeningocele.We report an exceptional case of 14-year-old, asymptomatic and neurologically intact girl with ...
