17 cases with cervical lesions were investigated by cervical Amipaque myelography through cisternal puncture in prone position. Early side effects were observed in 11 cases out of 17 cases (64.7%). No serious complications were seen except one case who developed transient disorientation and speech disturbances. The advantages of this method include low frequency of side effects, high quality myelograms with minimum dilution of the contrast medium, and easy technique. This approach was considered to be useful as Cl-2 lateral puncture for cervical myelography.
