A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with multi planar imaging of the spine done at presentation [Figures 1 and 2] showed extensive epidural masses appearing slightly hyperintense on T1-weighted (T1W) image and isointense to adjacent bone on T2-weighted (T2W) image, involving the posterior aspect of the spinal canal at the level of T6-T11.
