An intradural extramedullary ovoid shape lesion that displaces the cord anterior and to the right side. It displays isointense signal to the cord on T1 and T2 with avid enhancement after IV contrast.
Case Discussion
The differential diagnosis includes schwannoma and neurofibroma which are more associated with neural foraminal widening, usually multiple and have central foci of low signal on post contrast scan.
