American Journal of Roentgenology, 2012 OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this article is to review the neuroimaging findings of intradural extramedullary spinal tumors in the pediatric and adolescent population. The differential diagnosis for lesions in this location is limited and can be further narrowed with knowledge of specific imaging characteristics.

Surgically Treated Primary Spinal Cord Neoplasms in Southeastern Nigeria
Journal of Neurosciences in Rural Practice, 2018 Background: Primary spinal cord tumors are not as frequently encountered as their cranial counterparts. They could present in such an indolent manner that requires a reasonable index of suspicion for their diagnosis to be considered.

Spontaneous Spinal Epidural Hematoma as a Potentially Important Stroke Mimic
Journal of Central Nervous System Disease, 2014 Hemiparesis develops in response to a wide range of neurological disorders, such as stroke, neoplasms and several inflammatory processes. Occasionally, it may also occur due to a lesion located in the high cervical spinal cord. In this concise review, we
