Primary spinal epidural Hodgkin's lymphoma is very rare. We will discuss the clinical features and treatment of primary spinal epidural Hodgkin's lymphoma. In this paper, a 30-year-old male patient who presented with spinal epidural tumor at the T9-11 level is reported. Subtotal resection of the tumor was performed and the histological examination of the tumor specimen revealed Hodgkin's lympho...

Chronic, refractory abdominal pain without a metabolic or structural gastroenterological etiology can be challenging for diagnosis and management. Even though it is rare, it has been reported that such a recurrent abdominal pain associated with radicular pattern can be derived from structural neurologic lesion like spinal cord tumor. We experienced an unusual case of chronic recurrent abdominal...

Generally, among the extradural spinal tumors, metastatic spinal tumor is much more common than primary spinal tumors. Thus, in the case of a spinal tumor patient with cancer history (such as lung cancer, breast cancer, etc.), we used to infer that the spinal lesion is the metastasis from, primary malignancy. We introduce an experience of a case of triple primary origin tumor in a 57-year-old m...

Background and Importance: Capillary hemangiomas are benign tumors found on the skin soft tissues. They rarely present as an intradural spinal tumor. Common differential diagnosis methods schwannoma, hemangioblastoma, metastasis, paragangliomas. Case Presentation: We report a case of 38-year-old female with complaints lower backache radiation to limbs, in which magnetic resonance imaging reveal...

Meningiomas are common spinal tumor and mostly located at intradura. Recurrence rate after surgery for extradural meningioma was higher than intradural meningioma. A patient with intra and extradural spinal meningioma was treated and discussed its features and clinical management. A 41-year-old woman noted numbness of bilateral legs, gait disturbance, and mild bladder disturbance for over the t...

Background: Melanocytoma is a rare pigmented central nervous tumor. In the spine, it may develop in meninges, extramedullary or intramedullary. It usually has good outcome after total excision.
 Case report:
 A 40-year-old male patient was admitted to our hospital 12 years ago with 3-month history of progressive neck pain and difficulty walking. On clinical examination, he showed uppe...

background: spinal cord injury (sci) stimulates an inflammatory reaction that causes substantial secondary damage inside the injured spinal tissue. the purpose of this study was to determine the anti-inflammatory effects of epigallocatechin gallate (egcg) on traumatized spinal cord. methods: rats were randomly divided into four groups of 12 rats each as follow: sham-operated group, trauma group...

The work focuses on examining patient based a comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA), including urgent situations related malignant neoplasm. protocol provides an overview hypercalcemia, tumor disintegration syndrome, spinal cord compression, neutropenia. issue educational n...

Intramedullary spinal cord metastasis (ISCM) is a rarely seen complication of cancer. We report a case of ISCM from gastric cancer. A 42-year-old male presented with a rare intramedullary spinal cord metastasis from gastric carcinoma manifesting as rapidly worsening motor and sphincter disturbances. The primary tumor had been treated 2 years previously. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed...
