    Author: Guarnaschelli JJ, Wehry SM, Serratoni FT, Dzenitis AJ.
    Journal: J Neurosurg; 1979 Sep; 51(3):415-6. PubMed ID: 224154.
    Abstract:
    A 14-year-old boy presented with mid-thoracic pain, leg weakness, and bladder dysfunction. Plain x-ray films and bone scan were normal whereas myelography demonstrated an extradural mass extending from T-2 to T-5. Exploration revealed a large tumor adherent to dura and bone. Pathological verification of an atypical fibrous histiocytoma prompted the report of this rare tumor of the vertebral column.
