Description: Clinical presentation:
A 60 year old man with increasing weakness in the legs.
The contrast views are oblique views of the cervical spine. The contrast is asymmetrical in the left hand image. The cord is displaced by a lesion, which is compressing the contrast in the sub-arachnoid space. The appearance is of an extra-axial and sub-dural tumour.
The saggital and coronal T2 weighted MRI images show a soft tissue mass with increased signal in the upper cervical canal and compressing the cord.
