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.

Experimental spinal cord compression by epidural neoplasms

Neurology, 1977
We have developed an experimental model of spinal cord compression in rats. Tumor injected anterior to the T-12 vertebral body grows through the intervertebral foramina to compress the cord and produces paraplegia in 3 to 4 weeks. Evidence for vasogenic edema in spinal cord compressed by tumor includes increased water content, leakage of horseradish ...

Spinal Cord Neoplasms

Continuum
This article discusses the diagnostic approach to patients with suspected neoplasms of the spinal cord and reviews the most common primary and metastatic spinal neoplasms and their presentations.Neoplasms of the spinal cord are rare entities that can involve the spinal cord parenchyma, the dura and leptomeninges, or the extradural space.

Surgical Pathology of Intramedullary Spinal Cord Neoplasms

Journal of Neuro-Oncology, 2000
The surgical pathology of intramedullary spinal cord neoplasms is most accurately based on radical resection specimens rather than on small biopsies, which may be highly misleading. A review of the neuropathology files at NYU Medical Center revealed 294 surgical specimens of intramedullary cord lesions examined between January 1, 1991 and December 31 ...

Spinal cord neoplasms and their mimics

Journal de Radiologie, 2008
Objectifs Understand the pathologic-radiologic correlation of spinal cord ependymoma and astrocytoma regarding its location within the spinal cord and appearance. Recognize common imaging manifestations of other spinal cord neoplasms. Identify other imaging features that suggest other non-neoplastic spinal cord diseases.

Vascular Malformations Presenting as Spinal Cord Neoplasms: Case Report

Neurosurgery, 1995
Three cases of adult patients with subacute courses of progressive caudal spinal cord disease are presented. Computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and myelographic studies were interpreted preoperatively as representing a spinal cord neoplasm in each case.

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.

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.

Asymptomatic spinal cord neoplasm detected during induction of spinal anesthesia

International Journal of Obstetric Anesthesia, 2010
We 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.

Enlargement of the spinal cord: inflammation or neoplasm?

Neurologia Croatica. Supplement, 2005
Intramedullary spinal tumours are uncommon lesions that can cause significant difficulties in the differential diagnosis between inflammatory diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS) and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM), and vascular malformations or neoplasms.
