Paraganglioma in the Lumbar Spinal Canal Treated by Surgery Assisted by MRI Neuroimaging and 3D Printing Reconstruction: A Case Report and Literature Review
crossref(2020)
Abstract
Abstract Background: Ganglion cell paraganglioma is a subtype of neuroendocrine tumors, which is rare in clinical practice. Paraganglioma in the spinal area, especially in the spinal canal, is even rarer.Case presentation:The case we reported was a 46-year-old female who was admitted to the hospital due to "physical examination found a mass in the lumbar spinal canal for more than 2 months." After admission, the relevant examinations and preoperative preparations were perfected, and the posterior L2-3 spinal mass resection + spinal decompression + nail rod system internal fixation was performed. The patient recovered well after the operation, and there was no tumor recurrence in follow-up. Conclusions:Surgical treatment assisted by MRI neuroimaging and 3D printing reconstruction technology may be an effective way to treat paraganglioma in the lumbar spinal canal.
