Intramedullary spinal metastases are rare and prior to the availability of MRI were seldom diagnosed antemortem. Lung and breast carcinoma are the most common primary sources. Cervical carcinoma is the least likely source of intramedullary spinal metastases. A case of intramedullary spinal metastases is described in a 29-year-old woman with squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix.
脊髓髓内转移瘤罕见,在磁共振成像(MRI)出现之前很少能在生前诊断出来。肺癌和乳腺癌是最常见的原发灶。宫颈癌是脊髓髓内转移瘤最不可能的原发灶来源。本文描述了一例29岁宫颈鳞状细胞癌女性发生脊髓髓内转移瘤的病例。
