Abstrakt:	Neurenteric cysts (NC) are rare, benign, congenital lesions, caused by abnormal or persistent communications between neuroectodermal structures, the notochord and endodermal tissue. They present mainly in the pediatric population or young adults, coexisting with spinal, gastrointestinal or respiratory malformations. They are typically intradural extramedullary tumors, with intramedullary lesions the exception. The objective of this paper is to report the case of a cervical intramedullary neuroenteric cyst in a young adult, without coexisting malformations. According to the literature, surgical treatment is elective though, considering the high recurrence rate, radical resection should be the surgical goal. Follow-up with magnetic resonance imaging is recommended for subtotal surgical resections. Competing Interests: There are no conflicts of interest.
