Multicentric glioma presenting as man-in-the-barrel syndrome.

CMYK371 tradural extension was seen in two patients. On MRI about 75% of ganglioneuromas are isointense and 25% are hypointense on T1 images. Most of them are hyperintense on T2 images. The non-homogeneous appearance corresponds to areas of cystic degeneration, hemorrhage or necrotic degeneration. Ganglioneuromas are well encapsulated tumors and can be completely excised. Even when they are intradural, the tumor could be removed without cord injury because they are not adherent to the spinal cord. This and previously reported cases indicate that spinal ganglioneuromas could be completely removed and cured. Danilo V. Radulovi, D. Branislav, Milica K. Skender-Gazibara,*Nikoli M.
