I have intradural lipoma in my spine. Can it old or new growth

[@LearnNeuroradiology]

Most lipomas do not grow, although they can change size over time slowly if they accumulate fat. Most of the time they are nothing to worry about.

[@kishorkumarb3192]

Sir, can’t be the haemangioblastoma is first differential than ependymoma for 2nd case because of cyst with enhancing mural nodule appearance ?

I am a 21 yr old male and recently I have undergone MRI for shoulder pain and shaking of hand....In MRI report it has been found that I have an intramedullary expensive t2 hyperintense lesion in upper cervical cord at c2/c3 level without significant enhancement and isointense to chord in t1 lesion measures about 3x1. 1x1.2 cm I feel pain while I sleep in right side...otherwise I don't have any other problem. I am doing well and I don't have any other issues apart from this... What could be my problem Sir?

[@LearnNeuroradiology]

You'll have to talk to your doctors about that because it could be a lot of things, including demyelination, a tumor, or related to infection.

[@rkunaln]

Sir, in mri I have an expensive t2 hyperintense lesion in upper cervical cord at c2/c3 level without significant enhancement and isointense to chord in t1 lesion measures about 3x1. 1x1.2 cm what does that mean?

[@LearnNeuroradiology]

You can't say with only that information. Tumor, demyelination, inflammatory disease, sarcoid could all be considered. You should talk to your doctors about the results

[@rkunaln]

@@LearnNeuroradiology Okay Sir ... Sir is there any risk factor associated with frequent mri?

[@LearnNeuroradiology]

@@rkunaln No, not particularly. Millions of MRIs are administered a year with very low risk. It is unknown whether accumulation of contrast agents is bad, so we try to administer them only when needed. Otherwise, it's quite safe.

[@cindygoodin8758]

Is a lesion a tumor?

[@LearnNeuroradiology]

A lesion is an area of injury or other tissue abnormality. It does not have to be a tumor. It could be from infection, inflammation, trauma, or other causes.
