Schistosomal myelopathy mimicking spinal cord neoplasm

Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2005
We describe a 48-y-old male with chronic progressive myelopathy suggesting thoracic intramedullary neoplasm but in whom laboratory workup disclosed Schistosoma mansoni myelopathy. The case illustrates the need for careful investigation of schistosomiasis in patients from endemic regions with myeloradiculopathy signs.

Spinal cord schistosomiasis: A pediatric case mimicking intrinsic cord neoplasm

Neurology, 1991
We present the clinical, myelographic, MRI, and histologic data on a 7-year-old girl with confirmed Schistosoma mansoni infection of the spinal cord. MRI of the granulomatous spinal lesion revealed extensive enlargement of the cord in the T11-12 area, with some intramedullary swelling extending to T-5 through T-7.

Thoracic spinal iophendylate-induced arachnoiditis mimicking an intramedullary spinal cord neoplasm

Journal of Neurosurgery: Spine, 2008
✓Iophendylate (Pantopaque or Myodil) was commonly used from the 1940s until the late 1980s for myelography, cisternography, and ventriculography. Although such instances are rare, several different long-term sequelae have been described in the literature and associated with intrathecal iophendylate. The authors describe an unusual case of arachnoiditis

Intramedullary Spinal Cord Malakoplakia Mimicking Malignant Neoplasm on 18F-FDG PET/CT.

open access: closedClinical Nuclear Medicine
We report a rare case of intramedullary spinal cord malakoplakia mimicking malignancy on 18F-FDG PET/CT. A 61-year-old man underwent a contrast-enhanced spinal cord MRI to evaluate 1 week of progressive left-sided weakness.

Spinal Cord Compression Due to Metastatic Neoplasm

Southern Medical Journal, 1990
A retrospective study of 73 assessable patients with spinal cord compression due to metastatic tumor was conducted. Fifty-five patients had paraparesis and 18 were paraplegic. Treatment consisted of surgical decompression in 22 patients, radiotherapy in 31 patients, and a combination of both modalities in 20 patients.

Toxicologic Pathology Forum Opinion: Interpretation of Gliosis in the Brain and Spinal Cord Observed During Nonclinical Safety Studies

Toxicologic pathology (Print), 2023
Gliosis, defined as a nonneoplastic reaction (hypertrophy and/or proliferation) of astrocytes and/or microglial cells, is a frequent finding in the central nervous system (CNS [brain and/or spinal cord]) in nonclinical safety studies.

Part I: Spinal-cord neoplasms—intradural neoplasms

The Lancet Oncology, 2007
Intradural spinal-cord tumours are an uncommon but important consideration in the differential diagnosis of patients with back pain, radicular pain, sensorimotor deficits, or sphincter dysfunction. Intradural spinal tumours can be divided into intramedullary and extramedullary spinal-cord tumours on the basis of their anatomical relation to the spinal ...

Recurrent solitary fibrous tumor of the spinal cord: A case report and literature review.

Clinical Neuropathology, 2020
Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a benign mesenchymal neoplasm occurring anywhere in the body, such as the visceral pleura, while it is extremely rare in the central nervous system, especially within the spinal cord.

Spinal Cord Neoplasms

2010
Spinal cord neoplasms are an uncommon cause of back pain, radicular pain, or sensorymotor defi cits. Primary tumors that involve the spinal cord or nerve roots may arise from glial cells located within the parenchyma of the cord, Schwann cells of the nerve roots, or meningeal cells covering the cord.
