Abstract:
Intradural extramedullary tuberculoma of the spinal cord is a rare manifestation of the spinal tuberculosis, with a few cases described so far. Recently, we have experienced two cases of extensive intradural extramedullary tuberculoma at the thoracic spine. So, we report these cases with review of the literatures.
