Ependymoma of the spinal cord with multiple intradural extramedullary ependymomas: The first case report and literature review

Ependymomas are the most prevalent intramedullary neoplasms in adults. Few cases have been reported on exophytic intramedullary ependymoma or multiple non-conus, and non-filum intradural extramedullary (IDEM) ependymomas. Here, we reported a 30-years old female with exophytic ependymoma in T10-11 and multiple IDEM ependymomas in T3-S2 and who's condition ultimately improved. This is the first case of exophytic ependymoma of the spinal cord with multiple IDEM ependymomas.
