Abstract: Most spinal meningiomas have an intradural or partly extradural location. The meningothelial origin is the most common pathologic type of spinal meningioma. Pure extradural spinal meningiomas are not common, and lymphoplasmacyte-rich meningioma (LPRM) is very rare. We report a case of isolated extradural spinal meningioma in the thoracic spine that was pathologically confirmed as LPRM.
