Abstract:
We report magnetic resonance findings in the intramedullary schwannoma of the cervical spinal cord in two patients. In both cases, the solid portions of the tumours enhanced intensely after administration of Gd-DTPA and the enhanced border was sharply delineated from the adjacent spinal cord. Schwannomas should be considered in the differential diagnosis of intramedullary tumours when magnetic resonance images show a strongly enhancing mass with sharply delineated borders.
