Intradural extramedullary bronchogenic cysts (IEBCs) are exceedingly rare congenital entities, composed of respiratory epithelial cells derived from the anomalous development of the embryonic foregut. Due to their exceptionally low morbidity, only limited cases are available. Consequently, the clinical features and optimal therapeutic approach remain poorly understood.

Primary spinal intradural malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) are rare neoplasms, especially in children with a non-neurofibromatosis background. Scarce pediatric data exist with regard to such tumors. A 4-year-old child with a history of spastic limb weakness was operated for a foramen magnum spinal lesion (intradural and extradural) with imaging suggestive of schwannoma; the histopathology, however, was that of a MPNST.

Article Synopsis
  • Spinal intradural lipomas are rare tumors, particularly when not linked to spinal dysraphism, and are often diagnosed late due to their gradual growth and location.
  • A case involving an eight-year-old girl revealed a lipoma and a cyst in her lumbar region, leading to symptoms like limb weakness and urinary issues; both lesions were partially removed surgically with a successful recovery.
  • The discovery of fluid-filled cysts alongside lipomas is extremely rare, and while the exact origin of these lipomas is unclear, their coexistence with cysts may prompt earlier detection and intervention.
