Intramedullary ependymomas represent the 40-60% of spinal cord tumors in adults and can be located along the entire spinal cord. Intradural extramedullary (IDEM) ependymomas are on the other hand a very rare entity with the exception of those located at the filum terminale or conus medullaris, with histological features of myxopapillary ependimomas (WHO I).

Abstract
Intramedullary ependymomas represent the 40-60% of spinal cord tumors in adults and can be located along the entire spinal cord. Intradural extramedullary (IDEM) ependymomas are on the other hand a very rare entity with the exception of those located at the filum terminale or conus medullaris, with histological features of myxopapillary ependimomas (WHO I).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
