HI
Thank for asking to HCM
There is bony growth or it may arising from the gap, the "cyst" is a bag like structure may contains, blood, pus, clear fluid, semisolid material, and this is compressing the adjoining structure of spinal cord, the disc of spine also shifted from its original place at the level of lumber vertebra no. 4 and 5 also there is bulging of disc at the level of lumber 5 and the sacral level 1, this the spinal cord disease, you have to take the opinion from neurosurgeon, have nice day.
