Abstract:
We report a case of a 35-year-old woman with recurrent lumbar pain and left cruralgia in a post-traumatic context, for which the scanner had made possible the fortuitous diagnostic of a congenital anomaly. The diagnosis of diastematomyelia, which is more frequent in utero, is rare in adulthood and results from the implementation of an iconographic assessment. We will present the major malformations that are associated with diastematomyelia and which could evoke the presence of this malformation. The management of the anomaly is still controversial and can lead, if not done properly, to invalidating neurological deteriorations.
