The aim of this study was to find the relationship between the location of conus medullaris (CM) and gender, age and body mass index (BMI) in order to minimi...

متن کاملGlioblastoma multiforme in the adult conus medullaris.
De novo glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) of the spine is rare. We present a patient with a unique GBM arising within the conus and radiographically mimicking a filum terminale ependymoma. During surgery the lesion was notable for its highly vascular and diffuse infiltration of the surrounding spinal cord parenchyma. The operative goals were altered to account for the unexpected pathology. The trea...
متن کاملLipoma of conus medullaris without spinal dysraphism in an adult.
Meningeal solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare tumor and is different from fibroblastic meningiomas (FM) and hemangiopericytoma (HPC). SFTs account for 0.09% of all meningeal tumors.[1-3] Compared to meningiomas the SFTs show a predilection for the posterior fossa and spine.[1,2] Most of these tumors are benign, however, local recurrence have been reported.[3] Gengler and Guillou[4] in a revi...
متن کاملConus medullaris stroke
Absent F wave in the stage of spinal shock has been described in cases of traumatic spinal cord injury. The role of F wave in predicting prognosis after conus medullaris infarct has not been described. We describe herein a middle aged-man with a conus medullaris infarct. Both tibial and peroneal F waves were absent on day 4. The left tibial F wave reappeared in the following study on day 18. Al...
