  • Title: Intramedullary tuberculoma of the spinal cord with syringomyelia.
    Author: Sánchez Pernaute R, Berciano J, Rebollo M, Pascual J.
    Journal: Neuroradiology; 1996 May; 38 Suppl 1():S105-6. PubMed ID: 8811693.
    Abstract:
    We describe a patient with a presumed intramedullary tuberculoma treated only with antituberculous therapy. MRI showed a ring-enhancing annular lesion in the thoracic spinal cord with a distant syringomyelic cavity, which improved after therapy. MRI in this case allowed us not only to achieve a presumptive diagnosis but also to assess the therapeutic response, making surgical exploration unnecessary.
