Abstract
A case of multiple neurinomas, firmly embedded within the nervous substance of the spinal cord and presumably extending over the entire length of its surface, is reported. The complete lack of relationship of the multiple lesions with the spinal roots and the absence of signs of neurofibromatosis are the most salient features of this uncommon case. In a discussion of the origin of the condition, it is concluded that this case might be an example of neurocristopathy.This publication has 18 references indexed in Scilit:
