Summary: | A 35 years old male came with complaints of low back
ache radiating to right lower limb and is associated
with tingling numbness and thin stream of urine since 1
year. Radiograph lumbo-scaral spine came out to be
normal and thus MRI lumbo-sacral spine was done
which revealed an intramedullary spinal tumour.
Subsequent CT scan was done for the patient. Considering
the tumour characteristics, diagnosis of
intramedullary dermoid was made. |
