The rehabilitation outcome of spinal meningioma induced proprioception deficit.

Chronic non-traumatic myelopathy developed in a woman who presented symptoms of gait ataxia, right leg motor weakness, dysesthesia and urinary difficulty. Clinical evaluation revealed right leg weakness and global anesthesia as well as temperature, vibratory and proprioception sensation loss below the T-9 level and deep tendon hyperreflexia over the lower extremities. Magnetic resonance imaging showed an extra-intramedullary meningioma at the T-9 level.
