A 38-year-old man presented with a highly symptomatic lumbar intradural extramedullary tumor. MRI features strongly suggested a myxopapillary ependymoma, with a possible drop metastasis. No filum terminale or spinal-cord attachment to the tumor was seen intraoperatively. Histopathology, surprisingly, ...
MRI is the preferred cross-sectional imaging modality because of its superb ability to demonstrate intraspinal extension of tumor or an associated spinal cord abnormality. On MRI, neurogenic tumors are typically well-defined masses of homogeneous appearance, demonstrating signal intensity slightly greater ...

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the lumbar spine showed a focal lesion in the L-4 vertebra which was hypermetabolic on positron emission tomography (PET) scan. A computed tomography (CT) guided needle biopsy showed a low grade spindle cell neoplasm with positive FGF-23 mRNA expression by ...
CASE REPORT:Here, we present a rare case of an 82-year-old man presenting with paresthesia of both arms and weakness of both legs, who underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the spine, which showed an aggressive extradural tumor.
