Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 4

Abstract

Spinal meningiomas are often located intradurally although sometimes they may have extensions into the extradural compartment. Purely extradural spinal meningiomas are extremely rare. Only few (7) cases have been reported until date hence can cause a diagnostic dilemma preoperatively. In this manuscript, we report a case of extradural thoracic spinal meningioma of meningothelial variant along with review of literature.
