Intramedullary tumors are rare spinal cord growths causing significant illness. Diagnosis relies on patient factors and MRI, with ependymomas and astrocytomas being most common.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Oncology
  • Radiology

Context:

  • Intramedullary tumors are uncommon neoplasms within the spinal cord.
  • These tumors can lead to substantial patient morbidity.
  • Age and clinical presentation are crucial for differential diagnosis.

Purpose:

  • To review the diagnosis and common types of intramedullary tumors.
  • To highlight the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosis.

Summary:

  • Intramedullary tumors, though rare, present diagnostic challenges due to potential morbidity.
  • Contrast-enhanced MRI is the primary imaging modality for diagnosis.
  • Ependymomas and astrocytomas are the most frequently encountered intramedullary tumors.
