Ganglioneuroma of the cervical spine.

Ali Akbar Bhand1.   

Abstract

This case report describes a young lady who presented with complaints of neck pain and weakness of all four limbs for the last eight months. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan of cervical spine revealed dumbbell shaped extramedullary lesion at C-3 and C-4 level extending outside through neural foramen of C-3. She underwent extended cervical laminectomy from C-3 to C-7 level. Postoperatively power was gradually regained in all four limbs. Histopathology confirmed a case of ganglioneuroma.
