Intradural extramedullary spinal cord tumors are rare but can cause significant neurological symptoms. We present a case of a 23-year-old male who developed progressive bilateral leg pain and lower limb weakness 2 years after undergoing posterior spinal fixation for a T12 burst fracture. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an intradural extramedullary tumor at the site of the previous surgery.
