Intradural extramedullary spine tumors, approximately one-half of which are peripheral nerve sheath tumors (PNSTs), comprise two-thirds of primary spinal neoplasms. Given the rarity of PNSTs and the restricted indications for adding fusion to laminectomy for tumor resection, analyses of spinal fusion outcomes are limited.

Pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma (PXA) is a unique meningocerebral glioma with a relatively favorable prognosis. PXA also possesses a variant with anaplastic features (aPXA), which is associated with poor outcomes. To date, few studies have examined the clinicopathologic importance of these anaplastic features.

Pleomorphic Xanthoastrocytoma with Anaplastic Features: Retrospective Case Series.

Although cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) can be devastating, its relative impact on general health remains unclear. Patient responses to the Short Form Survey 36-Health Survey (SF-36) Physical Component Summary (PCS)/Mental Component Summary (MCS) were compared between CSM and other diseases to evaluate their respective impacts on quality of life. The objective of this study was to compare SF-36 PCS/MCS scores in CSM with population and disease-specific norms.
