Abstract:
We describe a two-stage operation, rarely reported since being introduced in 1911, for treatment of an intramedullary ependymoma extending to the upper cervical cord in a young adult. This classic two-stage strategy combined with modern techniques remains a useful option for selected patients to safely remove intramedullary ependymomas.
