Ependymomas are the most prevalent intramedullary neoplasms in adults. Few cases have been reported on exophytic intramedullary ependymoma or multiple non-conus, and non-filum intradural extramedullary (IDEM) ependymomas. Here, we reported a 30-years old female with exophytic ependymoma in T10-11 and multiple IDEM ependymomas in T3-S2 and who's condition ultimately improved. This is the first case of exophytic ependymoma of the spinal cord with multiple IDEM ependymomas.
室管膜瘤是成人中最常见的脊髓内肿瘤。关于脊髓外生性室管膜瘤或多个非圆锥部、非脊髓脊膜内硬膜外(IDEM)室管膜瘤的报道较少。在此,我们报告了一例 30 岁女性,其 T10-11 段存在外生性室管膜瘤,T3-S2 段存在多个 IDEM 室管膜瘤,病情最终得到改善。这是首例脊髓外生性室管膜瘤合并多个 IDEM 室管膜瘤的病例。
