Dr. Bapun Nayak, Dr. Gitanjali Datta, Dr. S. I. Sadique
Abstract: Spinal epidermoid cysts are rare, benign lesions that may cause significant neurological deficits due to spinal cord or nerve root compression. Over a period of 10 years (2014?2024), 10 cases of spinal epidermoid cysts were managed at our institution. This case series explores clinical presentation, radiological findings, surgical management, and postoperative outcomes of spinal epidermoid cysts. The study highlights the importance of early diagnosis and complete excision for optimal recovery. A literature review is included to compare our findings with those of other published studies.
