Abstract:
A 27-year-old female with low back pain and paresthesia on the left lower extremity had been treated. Lumbar myelography showed total block of the dye column at the L3 vertebral body level with a brush border. After myelography, total laminectomy on the L3 and L4 vertebrae was done. The result of operation and biopsy revealed an extradural meningioma of angioblastic type. 9 days after the surgery all neurological deficits were completely recovered.
