Abstract
Spinal intradural extramedullary non-infiltrated solitary metastasis is very rare. We report a case of intradural extramedullary carcinoma to the T9 nerve root, which mimiking a nerve sheath tumor. Pathology reveals metastatic adenocarcinoma. We discuss the feature of mechanism and pathogenesis and management strategy follows.
