ABSTRACT
Spinal schwannoma is a slow growing symptomatic tumor which is derived from Schwann cells of peripheral nerves. Most reported cases have been single lesion, while multiple schwannomas have invariably documented one manifestation of von Recklinghausen's disease. Nevertheless, we observed a case of independent, multiple, spinal schwannomas for 6 years before excision. We report the growing velocity and progression of neurologic symptoms and neurologic changes before excision and present a literature review.
