Abstract

Spinal meningiomas are most commonly found in the thoracic sections while it is extremely rare in the cervical, lumbar and sacral regions. In Elsberg's series, there were 10 cervical, 59 thoracic and 4 lumbar ; none below the 3rd lumbar segment. Recently, we encountered a case of cauda equina meningioma and was completely extirpated with no remnants of any neurological deficits.
