Abstract

We report a case of ganglioneuroblastoma of the spinal cord in a 42-year-old man. MR examination was nonspecific, and the diagnosis was made from histologic findings. The MR picture was that of an intramedullary, mainly solid tumor with a central necrotic or cystic portion. The clinical picture and course were also nonspecific.
