Abstract
Two cases of acute transverse myelopathy are described. In one patient, a complete myelographic block rapidly regressed. The other case progressed to block because of intra-medullary cyst formation, with a myelographic picture not hitherto encountered and perhaps specific for that pathology. The cases illustrate the difficulties encountered in the decision to operate on cases of acutely developing paraplegia with sensory level, and the value of repeated myelographic examinations.
