[Pseudomeningocele after laminectomy].
Pseudo-meningocele post-laminectomy is a non-frequent complication of this surgical technique. It is usually diagnosed by myelography; the CT scan has helped to detect more cases. We present a case studied by CT and RMN and there are no existing previous publications on the case confirmed by RMN. The relation between the findings and the clinic as well as the therapy still on discussion.
