Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Spinal Imaging
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Intradural lipomas are rare, benign tumors arising from ectopic adipose tissue within the spinal canal.
  • They most commonly occur in the thoraco-lumbar region and can present with variable neurological symptoms.

Observation:

  • A case report of a 24-year-old female presenting with symptoms related to a spinal tumor.
  • Imaging revealed an intradural mass at the thoraco-lumbar junction.

Findings:

  • Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of an intradural lipoma.
  • The tumor was located within the dura mater, compressing the spinal cord.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the importance of accurate diagnosis and surgical management of spinal lipomas.
  • Early detection and intervention can prevent progressive neurological deficits.
