Abstract
UNLABELLED: To report the occurrence of intramedullary spinal cord metastases in a patient with a mesothelioma. A case report. SETTING: University medical center. A 67-year old man with mesothelioma developed paraparesis 6-months after diagnostic thoracotomy. MR spine imaging revealed an intramedullary spinal cord metastases. Cyberknife radiotherapy. Intramedullary spinal cord metastases, although rare, is increasingly recognized with spinal cord MRI. Treatment remains unsatisfactory as treatment with surgery or irradiation is only partially effective.
