Abstract

Dumbbell tumors are tumors of two or more regions of the spinal column. The majority of the dumbbell tumors are schwannomas. The presentation of spinal meningiomas as a dumbbell tumors are very rare. The diagnosis of Dumbbell-shaped meningiomas with imaging methods is important for preoperative accurate treatment planning and to prevent its postsurgical recurrences.

Dambıl Şekilli Transforaminal Paravertebral Menenjiom

Abstract

Dambıl tümörler iki veya daha fazla spinal alanı tutan tümörlerdir. Dambıl tümörlerin büyük kısmını schwannomlar oluşturur. Spinal menenjiomların dambıl tümor olarak prezente olması oldukça nadirdir. Spinal dambıl tümör şeklinde prezente olan menenjiomların görüntüleme yöntemleri ile ayırıcı tanısının yapılması hem cerrahi öncesi doğru tedavi planlaması, hem de cerrahi sonrası olası rekürensleri engelleme açısından önemlidir.
