Thoracic spinal metastasis from unexpected cerebellar medulloblastoma: the value of MRI
Abstract:
A 28-year-old male was found on CT metrizamide myelography to have an intradural extramedullary tumor at the T8-T9 level. This was seen to compress the spinal cord, and on surgery it was proven to be medulloblastoma. Cranial CT scans disclosed only mild hydrocephalus and minimal anterior displacement of the inferior fourth ventricle on the right. However, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) which was performed after the spinal surgery demonstrated an inferior cerebellar vermian tumor.
