Preoperative T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging scan showing significant spinal cord edema rostral and caudal to the lesion at the level of T8-9. The lesion appeared to cause focal spinal cord expansion.

The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan revealed a T8-9 intradural cord lesion with both intra- and extramedullary components. There was also a high T2-weighted cord signal extending from the thoracic through the lower cervical spinal segments [Figures 1-4].
Preoperative T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging scan demonstrating spinal cord edema up to the level of C6.

The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan revealed a T8-9 intradural cord lesion with both intra- and extramedullary components. There was also a high T2-weighted cord signal extending from the thoracic through the lower cervical spinal segments [Figures 1-4].
Preoperative T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging scan with contrast revealed an intradural tumor with both intramedullary and extramedullary components. The tumor also appeared to be homogenously enhancing.

The MRI demonstrated gross total resection of the tumor and the high T2-weighted cord signal was diminished [Figures 5a-c and 6].
One month postoperative magnetic resonance imaging scan revealed near-complete regression of the spinal cord edema associated with an intradural capillary hemangioma following T8-9 laminectomy.
