Fig. 1 T1-weighted sagittal MRI of patient 1 after administration of gadolinium shows an epidural tumor mass in the cervical and thoracic spinal canal, extending through the foramen magnum into the skull (arrow).

Fig. 2 T1-weighted sagittal MRI of patient 2 before (A) and after (B) administration of gadolinium demonstrate an epidural mass extending from T10 to L3. T1-weighted transverse MRI after gadolinium administration (C) shows growth of tumor through the intervertebral foramina (arrows). Five months later, T1-weighted sagittal MRI (D) demonstrates extension of the epidural mass up to the foramen magnum.
