TERATOMA OF THE SPINAL CORD: A CASE REPORT
Journal Title: Journal of Turkish Spinal Surgery - Year 2005, Vol 16, Issue 2
Abstract
Intradural spinal teratomas are very rare dysembriogenetic tumors. We present an intra-dural extramedullary spinal teratoma without spinal dysraphism. Poeze et al. reported 83 spinal teratomas from the literature review in 1999. Of these, only 52 were extramedullary. Most of them were reported in pre MRI era. We discussed ne-uroradiological properties of an intradural teratoma with emphasis on MRI.
