title: High cervical intradural lipoma--case report.
abstract: A rare high cervical intradural subpial lipoma unassociated with spinal dysraphism manifested by a slowly progressive myelopathy simulating Brown-Sequard syndrome in a 37-year-old male. The diagnosis was based on neuroradiological imaging. Intraoperative recording of somatosensory evoked potentials showed recovery of the prolonged N20 latency, indicating adequate decompression was achieved.
