Abstract
Meningioma, nerve sheath tumors, and filum terminale ependymoma account for over 90% of primary intradural extramedullary tumors in adults. The demographics, radiological evaluation, and surgical techniques employed for their removal are reviewed in this article. The authors' approach to intraspinal tumors with extraspinal extension is discussed.Entities:
