Abstract:Objective: To investigate the MRI manifestations of intraspinal ganglioneuroma and improve the imaging diagnostic level. Methods: A retrospective analysis of our hospital confirmed by surgery and pathology in 13 cases of intraspinal ganglioneuroma, clinical MRI imaging and pathological results, all patients underwent MRI scan and enhanced scan. Results: Thirteen cases of intraspinal ganglioneuroma were solitary. There were 5 cases in cervical spinal canal, 1 case in thoracic spinal canal, 7 cases in lumbar or lumbosacral spinal canal. The 13 lesions were solid and the margin was clear. Five cases were round, and 8 cases of intervertebral foramen growth, was dumbbell shaped. Lesion size ranged from 0.8 cm×0.8 cm to 7.4 cm ×3.5 cm. Lesion signal was equal or slightly lower signal on T1WI, and showed high signal on T2WI, 5 cases of signal uniformity, 8 cases of uneven signal, 3 cases of lesions can be seen within the size of different cystic area. Enhanced scan of 11 lesions see enhanced, 2 cases of lesions were not obvious. Conclusion: Kowning MRI characteristic manifestation of intraspinal ganglioneuroma has important significance, and improving the imaging diagnostic level of this disease.
