Zusammenfassung: | Sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy or Rosai-Dorfman
disease is a rare, but well documented entity. We report a lady who
presented with progressive quadriparesis, with cervical extradural
lesion on magnetic resonance imaging. She underwent decompression of
the lesion and histological diagnosis of the lesion was Rosai-Dorfman
disease. On one-year follow-up, she had complete improvement of the
deficits with no further progression of the lesion. The presentation of
this disease as an isolated spinal extradural mass lesion is quite
rare, with only six cases reported in literature. |
