Abstract
- In adults, spinal ependymomas are usually found in intramedullary locations. However, intradural extramedullary spinal ependymomas are rare. Additionally, spinal ependymomas usually show iso to hypointensity on T1-weighted images without hemorrhage. Herein, we present a rare case of a 43-year-old female with a pathologically confirmed intradural extramedullary ependymoma that showed hyperintensity on T1-weighted imaging accompanied by hemorrhage.
