Teratomas in the spinal cord are rare. We report a case in a 54-year-old man. CT scans revealed tumours of different densities within the spinal canal; this heterogeneity may help to differentiate teratoma from other spinal cord tumours. After resection of the tumours under microscopy, the result was excellent. Histological examination showed a variety of tissues, including elements of all three germinal layers.
脊髓畸胎瘤很罕见。我们报告一例54岁男性患者的病例。CT扫描显示椎管内有不同密度的肿瘤；这种异质性可能有助于将畸胎瘤与其他脊髓肿瘤区分开来。在显微镜下切除肿瘤后，结果良好。组织学检查显示有多种组织，包括所有三个胚层的成分。
