High impact information on Epidural Neoplasms

  • We evaluated the role of serotonin (5-HT) in neoplastic cord compression in paraplegic rats harboring a thoracolumbar epidural tumor [1].
  • It has been demonstrated in paraplegic rats harboring an epidural neoplasm that an antiedema effect can be achieved by in vivo treatment with either steroidal or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents or by glutamate receptor antagonists [2].
  • A 14-year-old girl who presented with a severe sensory-motor-sphincter syndrome was found to be harboring an epidural tumor situated posteriorly in the spinal canal from C5 through C7 levels [3].
  • The authors present a case of cervical chordoma which manifested in a 5-year-old boy as a dumbbell-shaped epidural tumor without bone destruction [4].
