Enlargement of the spinal cord: Inflammation or neoplasm?
Intramedullary spinal tumours are uncommon lesions that can cause significant difficulties in the differential diagnosis between inflammatory diseases such as multiple sclerosis and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, and vascular malformations or neoplasms. We report five cases in which the history and the clinical symptoms suggested an inflammatory

Schistosomal myelopathy mimicking spinal cord neoplasm
Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2005We 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, 1991We 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.

Asymptomatic spinal cord neoplasm detected during induction of spinal anesthesia
International Journal of Obstetric Anesthesia, 2010We report a case of an asymptomatic spinal cord neoplasm detected during the placement of a 25-gauge Whitacre spinal needle for spinal anesthesia before elective cesarean delivery. Subarachnoid blood was repeatedly aspirated during otherwise uncomplicated induction of spinal anesthesia.

Spinal Cord Compression Due to Metastatic Neoplasm
Southern Medical Journal, 1990A 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.

Circulatory disturbance of the spinal cord with epidural neoplasm in rats
Journal of Neurosurgery, 1985✓ An experimental model of spinal epidural neoplasm was produced in rats by injecting Walker 256 carcinoma cell suspension anterior to the T12–13 vertebral body. With this model, spinal cord blood flow (SCBF) and its response to CO2 inhalation were estimated by the carbon-14-antipyrine autoradiography and the hydrogen clearance methods.
