Abstract
We present a two year old child with recurrent aseptic meningitis due to a spinal epidermoid in the subdural space. A dermal sinus had been operated earlier in this child. The connection between dermal sinus and spinal epidermoid is demonstrated. Computed tomography (CT) examination should be used as a screening in all patients with congenital dermal sinus with special reference to visualizing anatomical details.
