2 Fig 1 Case 1. (a and b) Coronal and sagittal (respectively) CT scan images (scout images) through the thoracolumbar spine demonstrating widened spinal canal (arrows). The patient is status post right lateral fusion. (c and d) Bone and soft tissue windows respectively through the mid-lumbar spine demonstrating an enlarged canal completely filled by thecal sac.

3 Fig 2 Case 2. (a) Scout film from CT scan. Kyphoscoliosis of thoracolumbar spine, demonstrating widened interpedicular distance characteristic of Marfan's syndrome (arrows). CT scan through upper lumbar (b) and sacrum (c) demonstrating progressive increase in size of the spinal canal, which is filled totally by the thecal sac.
