Neurosurgery, Erciyes University Faculty of Medicine, Kayseri, TUR.
Intramedullary schwannomas are a type of benign spinal cord tumor that originates from the Schwann cells of the nerve sheath. They are relatively rare and typically occur within the spinal cord itself, rather than in the surrounding tissue. Treatment options for cervical intramedullary schwannomas include surgical removal of the tumor, radiation therapy, and observation.

Introduction: Spinal schwannomas are benign intradural extramedullary tumors of Schwann cells, while hemangiomas are common benign vascular tumors found in the vertebral column.
Case Representation: This case study presents a 32-year-old male who developed both a spinal schwannoma and multiple thoracic vertebral haemangiomas following a COVID-19 infection and subsequent vaccination. The patient reported intermittent lumbar and thigh pain over 6-8 months.

This systematic review consolidates the literature on primary extradural meningiomas (PEMs), a rare subset of meningiomas. We describe the clinical features, management strategies used, and treatment outcomes for published cases. A systematic review was conducted using PRISMA guidelines across multiple databases to 29 July 2024.

Spinal cord meningiomas are typically benign, rare tumors that pose clinical challenges owing to their location and potential for spinal cord compression. This study aimed to assess the radiological features of spinal cord meningiomas and the key factors associated with their recurrence. We conducted a retrospective, single-institution study on 67 patients with pathologically confirmed spinal cord meningiomas who were surgically treated between January 2016 and December 2023.

We present the case of a 10-year-old male with a year-long history of low back pain, constipation, and difficulty in urination. MRI revealed an intradural extramedullary lesion at L5-S1, initially suspected to be a schwannoma or neurofibroma.
