[Cauda equina syndrome disclosing adenocarcinoma of the ethmoid].
Cauda equina metastases have been exceptionally described in sinusal neoplasms. MRI with gadolinium injection show up the primitive lesion and its neurologic extension. We report a case of cauda equina syndrome in which, only MRI, had show up intradural metastases and localised the ethmoïd sinus carcinoma.
