Article Synopsis
- Myxopapillary ependymomas (MPE) are rare, grade 2 spinal tumors known for their slow growth and benign nature but have a high recurrence risk and can spread through cerebrospinal fluid.*
-
- This study analyzed MRI characteristics and histopathological patterns in 13 patients with MPE, focusing on tumor location, size, signal intensity, and enhancement features.*
-
- Findings revealed typical MRI features such as T2 hyperintensity and contrast enhancement, with larger tumors often showing a microcystic pattern, while smaller tumors were usually solid, indicating a possible connection between tumor characteristics and histopathological patterns.*
