Hemorrhagic Spinal Schwannoma in Thoracolumbar Area with Total Paraplegia

Figure 1

Thoracolumbar T2W1 MRI in the sagittal plane (a and b) and axial plane (c and d) at the tumor height. We can observe the growth of hyperintensity from T10 to L2 in (b) compared with the initial MRI taken (a). Tumor margins are marked with the arrows. Axial T2W1 images on the tumor edges are shown in (c) and (d); the tumor diameter and length have increased in the space of four months.
