RESUMO
Los quistes aracnoideos espinales son entidades raras y casi siempre tienen una etiología congénita o espontánea. Los casos secundarios son muy poco frecuentes y muchas veces constituyen una causa de deterioro neurológico tras varios meses o años de un traumatismo espinal. Presentamos el caso de un varón diagnosticado de quiste aracnoideo espinal de etiología traumática, agrupamos los casos descritos hasta el momento en la literatura y revisamos las distintas opciones quirúrgicas relacionándolas con las teorías fisiopatológicas que tratan de explicar la génesis de estas lesiones
Spinal arachnoid cysts are rare entities, most of which have a congenital or spontaneous etiology. Secondary cases are infrequent and can constitute a cause of neurological deterioration several months or years after spinal trauma. We present the case of a male patient with traumatic spinal arachnoid cyst, together with a review of the cases published to date. Finally, we explain the different surgical options for this pathology relating them to the physiopathological theories that try to explain the origin of these lesions
