  • Title: Non-dysraphic intramedullary lipoma of the craniocervical region in an adult: Case report.
    Author: Iplikcioglu AC, Karabag H.
    Journal: Neurocirugia (Astur : Engl Ed); 2019; 30(5):250-253. PubMed ID: 30449709.
    Abstract:
    Intradural spinal lipomas with intracranial extension are very rare and are typically diagnosed in childhood. Radical surgical excision usually causes a high rate of morbidity because of the firm adherence between the lipoma and neural tissues. In this report, we present a case of craniocervical intradural intramedullary lipoma in an adult patient. The patient underwent surgery with excision of the mass, leaving a sheet of lipoma on the tumor bed.
