Description

In children, tumors of the spine are much rarer than intracranial tumors. They are classified into intramedullary, intradural-extramedullary, and extradural tumors. Magnetic resonance imaging provides crucial information regarding the extent, location, and internal structure of the mass, thus critically narrowing the differential diagnosis and guiding surgery. © 2007 Elsevier Inc.
