An intradural cervical chordoma mimicking schwannoma
Background: Chordoma is a relatively rare tumor originating from the embryonic remnants of the notochord. This is an aggressive, slow growing and invasive tumor. It occurs mostly at the two ends of neuroaxis which is more frequent in the sacrococcygeal region. Chordoma in vertebral column is very rare. This tumor is extradural in origin and compresses neural tissues and makes the patient sympto...
متن کاملParavertebral abscess and neurological deficits in cervical brucellar spondylitis.
Brucellosis is a zoonotic infection with a worldwide distribution, endemic in the Mediterranean region, and is associated with high morbidity in humans [1,2]. Osteoarticular complications are the most common focal complications of Brucella spp. infection [3]. These complications commonly affect the axial skeleton, with vertebral spondylitis accounting for 35%–50% of all osteoarticular complicat...
متن کاملCervical Paravertebral Osteolipoma: Case Report and Literature Review
Lipomas are the most frequent soft tissue tumors. Osteolipomas are a rare variant that can be difficult to diagnose. We report the case of a 66-year-old man consulting with a tumor of 2 years development in the right paravertebral cervical region. Neurologically, the patient had no sign of myelopathy or neurological focality. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a mass with a lipid component and c...
متن کاملCervical chordoma involving C3/C4: A case report.
Chordoma is a rare, indolent but locally invasive, osteolytic, slow growing, low grade, primary bone malignancy, derived from the embryonic remnants of the notochord. It is a midline tumour and it predominantly emerges from the axial skeleton. The most commonly observed location of a chordoma is in the sacrococcygeal region ( 50 to 55% ) followed by the cranio occipital region ( 25 to 30% )We p...
متن کاملEpidural Chordoma of the Cervical Spine with Secondary Bone Involvement
A 53-year-old man presented with cervical myelopathy. magnetic resonance imagine (MRI) revealed a predominantly extraskeletal, extradural lesion extending along the posterior aspects of the C2 to C5 vertebral bodies, with greater than 60% spinal canal compromise and severe cord compression. Bone involvement was present, but was thought to be secondary. Based on histopathology and immunohistoche...
