Magnetic resonance imaging of intraspinal epidermoid cyst: a case report.
Intraspinal epidermoid cysts are considered rare lesions. We report such a case in a 12-year-old boy that was diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging. The magnetic resonance imaging characteristics of the lesion and the importance of proper imaging sequences are discussed.
