    Fig 1.

    Axial T2-weighted MR image (A) and contiguous axial sections from a CT myelogram (B and C) demonstrate ventral extradural CSF (A, white arrows) and a thoracic “nuclear cleft” (B, arrowheads) through which a herniated disk protrudes into the ventral dura (C, arrows) and extradural contrast is noted along with a ventrally herniated spinal cord (C). D, Sagittal T2-weighted image at the upper thoracic spinal cord shows typical ventral herniation of the cord inferior to a posteriorly directed osteophyte.
