Abstract

A case of spinal cord compression in an oncology patient is presented. The compression was caused by minimal expansion of a vertebral body involved by a metastatic deposit impinging on a previously asymptomatic lipomatous spinal cord tumour. Nuclear magnetic resonance imaging clearly demonstrated both the vertebral metastasis and the intramedullary and extramedullary components of the lipomatous tumour in a single noninvasive investigation.
