초록
Most extracranial schwannomas are solitary, but neurofibromas are frequently associated with other manietations of neurofibromatosis. Schwannomas that occur within the context of neurofibromatosis tend to be multiple, but multiple schwannomas without manifestation of neurofibromatosis type 2 are very rare. The authors report a very rare case of multiple spinal intradural schwannomas in the absence of neurofibromatosis Type 2 maniestations. A 40-year-old man suffered from longstanding low back pain and left side sciatica which was treated with two stage operations. MRI showed multiple intradural mass lesions extending from L1 vertebral segment to S1 vertebral segment. There were no clinical and radiological manifestations of Type 2 neurofibromatosis. Histologically confirmed diagnosis was schwannoma.
